Frequently Asked Questions

The 88H has a more focused, slightly darker tone than the Bach 43, and generally feels more robust than the Yamaha 6300, but lacks some of the Yamaha’s modern refinements.
The clear lacquer is quite durable, but regular cleaning and occasional polishing will help maintain its shine and protect the brass from wear.
The F-attachment is a must for anyone playing orchestral music or needing to navigate more complex passages that require lower registers and quick range changes.
