While this is all correct and good info for those not familiar, the point of Valerie's email was that this insurance applies while shipping the horn, and the insurance includes damage - not just loss/theft. I am eagerly awaiting Valerie's response to Dave Weiner's question, as this is the crux of

Just a point of clarification. Your mileage will vary by insurance company. Here in the US, some companies will insure your horn as part of your standard homeowner's or renter's policy, and others will require a separate rider on the policy for musical instruments, in which case you will

Hi All, In a very unofficial and possibly incorrect copy of the horn part to Beethoven's 4th Piano Concerto, in the section starting at bar 341 there is a passage which has the first horn playing written top c's (for horn in G). Is this correct? Cheers, Lawrence (who has never been

[Hornlist] Used Geyer Mute For Sale

2008-01-03 Thread Wilbert Kimple
For Sale: Large brass everyday mute said to have been made by Carl Geyer. At least three players have backed me up on this, even though the mute is not marked in any way. Very unusual design, but works great on small belled horns. Nice conversation piece, but its size makes it a bit

Actually, my point was that your policy might or might not cover your horn against damage and loss. Check first! Carlisle On Jan 3, 2008, at 2:43 PM, Fred wrote: While this is all correct and good info for those not familiar, the point of Valerie's email was that this insurance applies

I would bet there's a deductible that's far greater than the cost of shipping by registered mail, which is the ONLY way to ship anything of value. The cost of registered mail on a $5000 package is less than $20 on top of the postage. If any externally evident damage occurs anywhere within the

In part of my past that I'd prefer to forget, I was once a licensed Property and Casualty Insurance Agent that did homeowners, renters, personal property and other insurance policy (licensed in 37 states.) Here's what I can tell you about musical instrument insurance. If you have no rider or

John is correct. I ship Finke horns by registered US mail exclusively. It is way cheaper than any of the private carriers, it is secure (the horn is kept locked from origin to destination), it is fast (3 days max to go cross country in most instances) and they don't just leave it on your front
