- Overall, it is in very good condition. It is an instrument without major dents near the typical areas like the leadpipe, levers, 3rd slide, or bell.
Furthermore, there is no plating wear on the bell when using the left-hand valve (Gespiel), making it still usable.
- Slides and main body have been cleaned with a swab.
- Leadpipe, where dirt tends to accumulate, has been cleaned with a brush.
- Bell screw has been cleaned with chemicals.
- Rotaries have been lubricated with Fast oil, tuning slides with YAMAHA oil, and rotary balls/shafts with Hedman oil. (While YAMAHA oil is applied to the tuning slides, using red jam oil may result in a milder tone. Please feel free to switch them out to your preference.)

- Equipped with a ball joint, which is usually found on higher-priced instruments, eliminating concerns about string breakage.
- While it does not produce the same tone as a 2-million-yen Alexander 103, it is a very precisely crafted instrument for its price range.
- If you desire a double horn but find them too expensive, this is a good instrument to start with.
Once you become more proficient, we recommend purchasing a long-lasting instrument from brands like Alexander, Paxman, or Wenzel.

- The included mouthpiece is a Tilz McWilliam model.
As the mouthpiece significantly affects tone and playability, we recommend purchasing one that suits you separately.

If you do not require the mouthpiece, the price will be reduced by 3,000 yen.
