Yamaha Model YHR 868 GD, full double, Bb / F, detachable bell, Very good condition. Beautiful rich creamy tone, excellent projection. Price $5750 or near offer. Extra large bore and throat with customized hand-crafted-bell. Red gold with silver trim. Water key. Adjustable hand support and adjustable little finger support. Thumb key easily changed to sit in either Bb or F. It is lacquered, and the bell is hand crafted, not factory Yamaha. Case - standard Yamaha suitcase style with moulded interior. Approximately 10 kg total weight horn and case. I am a keen amateur but have an extremely busy gig and concert schedule apart from my full-time day job. The horn was purchased, sight unseen, from Halstead's in Britain, with consultation and much negotiation as to suitability with Tony Halstead, and a few players I know in the Scottish Opera. The horn had a complete service by Tony before being sent to Australia. Even after all the best advice the horn is unsuitable for my particular needs. After recent hand surgery and even with the Bb/F trigger change the instrument is too heavy. Given the extremely large throat and bore this exacerbates the issues and would mean a complete change of hand position in the bell. I love it but it's not for me. I received the horn late last year, gave it a real try for a couple of weeks and ended up with more hand problems, even with the trigger changed around. Will ship to just about anywhere in the world. Free postage in Australia. Cost of shipping elsewhere depends on where you are. I have plenty of good references on eBay under the name ausrandoman.

Updated Listing. FINKE: Full Triple Bb/F/HighF Mod 78. Americus
The only horn to cover the whole repertoire from 'Baroque' to the 21st. Century.
A Triple!
Too heavy?
A compensating triple maybe light, but inaccurate in intonation, inefficient on the low F side, and 'stuffy' in the middle register.
The solution? A 'light weight' full Triple.
My German, hand made Finke 78 (F/Bflat/HighF) purchased in 2010, is light, because of its 'state of the art' carbon fibre valves. Its superb, free blowing, well centered response on all sides, is due to the excellent taper of its lead pipe and 'Americus' bell. Both are detachable and interchangeable with other models from the Finke factory.
It comes in beautifully lacquered brass, in excellent condition, with a well crafted 'back pack' gig bag for ease of transport.
At $10,500(Aus) o.n.o , this horn is cheaper than most brand new double horns of equal quality.
Why sell it then?
I'm a retiring professional who would like to see someone use it to its full potential.
