Frequently Asked Questions

The quick-switch valve system minimizes intonation discrepancies often found in older, simpler parforce horns, allowing for more consistent tuning between Eb and Bb.
The genuine leather is durable, but requires occasional conditioning with a leather care product to prevent drying and cracking, maintaining its feel and appearance.
The silver plating adds brightness and responsiveness compared to a typical brass mouthpiece, giving a more immediate and focused sound – a noticeable upgrade for many players.
