Max Goepel Kiel single F horn - a very fine instrument PDF Print E-mail

We've never had one of these before.  We don't usually bother with single F horns because of their very limited applications, the odd Vienna horn apart, of course;  but this is an exception.  It's not a starter instrument - far from it - but a very fine, handmade, professional single F horn for the discerning player who likes to use a single F horn, for whatever application, even just practising on.  It plays every bit as well as the F side on the very best, professional doubles.  It's even got a garland, and the lacquer is almost 100% intact, and very well applied.  It has the following, engraved in the garland:  "MAX GOEPEL KIEL 1940," so I guess it must be 70 years old.  It looks almost new.

Not for a kid, this (unless they're a very careful prodigy), but for the experienced player who just loves the F horn!
