Equally fascinating are the Vournelli French Horns from the same seller. All new silver F/Bb double horns, all priced less than $400; new, wonderful, etc. Have we ever heard this name before? The blurbs say that the valves are cut to 'high tolerance', at .005 inches. .005 inches seems clunky - but isn't that what 'high tolerance' means? 'Low tolerance' is more precise than 'high tolerance', isn't it?

You have to wonder - this ebay seller has excellent feedback scores,
but this is their description of a French Horn mouthpiece for sale:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200325251435

!! This is a silver plated French Horn mouthpiece. It is cut to within
.0005" tolerance
!! for a perfect fit. The French Horn mouthpiece is modeled after the
Bach only the taper
!! is different. It has thinner walls which gives more cooling and
that increases endurance.

Increased cooling - that's the ticket!
