Alexander 1103 in good condition |

This is the Geyer-style version of the famous 103.
These fine horns sound exactly like a 103, but are more free-blowing and slightly less 'awkward' to play. This one is in lacquered yellow brass with a fixed bell. The lacquer is 99% intact, and there are virtually no blemishes. The valves are highly airtight - the horn hasn't been used much at all - and the slightly flat high register and slightly sharp low register which 103s are famed for is absent. The high register is slotted and secure, the mid-register legato is lovely, and the low register is fat and meaty. It makes the bright, heroic sound that all Alexanders make, and it's ready to go. What more can a guy want? £POA
