Re: [Hornlist] Selman Horn
Well. Since I play a (rather old) Conn 8d, I suggested a used Conn 6, because I know it is a decent horn for a high school student. In addition, my HS band director has a new Conn 6, and it is a reliable horn. However, there was an incident with the string on the trigger... Oh well. I know that Conn is a reliable company. I just wish that they were buying the horn in person, rather than on ebay. ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
Re: [Hornlist] Selman Horn
I bought a 'Stagg' B-flat horn to take abroad for several months, when I didn't want to risk my good horn and wanted to pass the audition for the university orchestra immediately on my return. It came with white gloves too, so perhaps it was the same manufacturer. At first the intonation was terrible, but after a few weeks a single bobble of expanded polystyrene worked its way out of the far end, and the intonation magically improved. It was actually quite playable, but it was tinny and I don't know how long it would have lasted had I kept it. A lot of it was arguably cosmetic rather than functional. For example, the fastenings between tubes were made of cut wire rather than mouldings. A couple of years in the future when the manufacturers learn what they're doing, these instruments may start to become quite acceptable. Kit > A correction to my previous post about the Schill horn.

Re: [Hornlist] Selman Horn
"This is NOT one of those Cheap Imitations of the Selman! " - Thank God for that. I wonder what a cheap imitation of a Selman looks like? Cardboard cutout, perhaps? I think I saw one of those hanging up in a shoe store around Christmas time as a holiday decoration one time... I was especially impressed by the white gloves they include with every horn. I guess that is in case you decide you need to commit a crime with the horn, the CSI's will never be able to prove it was yours due to the lack of fingerprints? These horns have such a poor reputation, we should probably add NHR to the subject line from now on...
