Amazing at this pricepoint
Monstreys 06.01.2023
i've had this instrument for several months so i feel like i can give an accurate review

- downsides:
1. really big and clunky case (without room for scores or mutes) though i'm fairly sure i could toss this instrument from the third flour and it would be fine
2. bad moutpiece, so seriously take the money you save when you buy this and get a decent mouthpiece
3. bad oil: the rotary oil included with this instrument actually slowed down the movement, use good oil and plenty of it.
4. The instrument struggles with intonation around the high C#, not impossible to hit but unsure at all times.

BUT

i never suspected they could make an instrument like this at this pricepoint, this make the paxman academy i used to play sound like dogshit. it's really easy to tune and has a decent range both low and high. While i feel the instrument request more air than i was used to it is deffinitely a worthwile trade-off. Everyone who has tried it said it was quite ok, until they heard the pricepoint at which point they thought it was amazing.

TLDR:
Will this replace your Alexander or Hoyer? HAHAHA no.
Will this deliver a good to very good experience for a 5th to a 10th of the price? yes.
I advise this instrument to anyone starting with french horn or who like me nees an instrument to bridge several years untill a bigger purchase.

This horn has a lovely sound and great volume. I feel the quality is average not very strong. The removable bell is hard to get on and got stuck very soon after purchase. French horns are expensive so for music schools or young students it is ideal.
