Original price was: $2,000.00.Current price is: $1,800.00.

*This instrument is part of Lowell Greer’s Collection and not located at Hampson Horns. Please allow ample time for instrument to be shipped.*

Lowell Greer had a fascination with converting low F single horns into high F descant horns, many times giving these instruments a new life playing the high tessitura baroque and classical repertoire. This is a 4 valve high F horn with the thumb valve being a Bb extension to add onto the low range of the limited high F horn. The horn was originally a Conn 8D. Plays quite well!

This horn sits in Bb, and when the thumb is activated puts the horn into high F. Lowell did this intentionally for those players used to double descant or triple horns where the thumb activates the high F side.
