Geyer style horn with medium-large throat for moderate resistance to air flow.
- Hand-lapped rotary valves and slides
- Rotary valves and slides that have been hand-lapped are airtight and have smooth action.
- Articulated key levers
- Articulated key levers have responsive motion.
- Hammered and annealed bell
- Hammering and annealing are processes so important to the instrument\'s acoustic characteristics that Yamaha employs computer-controlled equipment to ensure consistently superior sound. Hammering enables bells to have a rich, resonant tone that blends beautifully with other instruments. Annealing is a cooling and heating process that makes it easier to control the acoustics of the instrument.
- Cyclical bore
- A cyclical bore is a perfectly cylindrical tubing assembly in combination with a conical leadpipe and bell system. This allows for consistent air flow throughout the horn.
- Tapered valves
- Tapered valves wear for a long time without air leakage.
- Excellent sound in all registers
- The combination of the secure high register, strong projection, and quick attack of the Bb horn with the rich, warm timbre of the F horn make the double horn ideal for most playing situations.
