Marching French Horn

| Nickel silver inner and outer slides |
The use of nickel silver inner and outer slides ensures better fit and less chance of corrosion because nickel-silver is harder and more durable than brass. |
| Honed Valves |
The precise fit between valve casings and pistons after honing means no air leakage. |
| Pressure-formed tubing |
Perfectly rounded tubing results in less turbulence and a smoother air flow, thus allowing for an excellent scale and reduced resistance. |
| Laser-fused pluzuma welded bell |
A high-energy laser fuses the brass together for a virtually seamless bell which allows continuous, even vibrations. |
| Hand-lapped valves and slides |
Hand-lapping valves and slides ensures an absolutely perfect fit and seal between the valve pistons and casing or slide parts. Such a perfect fit helps to achieve smooth air flow and smooth action and improve the response and intonation of the instrument. |
| Well balanced |
All Yamaha marching instruments are well-balanced so they are easy to hold while marching. |
| Heavy bracing |
All Yamaha marching instruments have heavy bracing throughout so they are more durable at vulnerable points and can withstand marching band. |
