Small 3/4 Scale Single F Horn with Big Value and Durability
The Verus Scholar is not just for young beginner students. This compact single F horn is a great practice tool for advanced students and professionals looking to improve their accuracy and hone their F horn skills. Coming in at well under the one-thousand dollar mark, the Verus Scholar is a new instrument option that’s easy on the pocketbook.
Playing Characteristics
The Scholar's yellow brass construction provides consistent response, and a gold brass leadpipe warms the sound. The bell and throat diameter have been appropriately scaled down, producing a sound that is light and sweet, but also complex. It is similar in some ways to a Vienna horn.
Ergonomics
The Verus Scholar is a ‘child-sized’ F horn. It’s the ideal instrument for young students who are just beginning their musical journey. The single F horn is wrapped more tightly than full-size instruments, and its bell throat and diameter are similarly scaled down. The compact left-hand grip and adjustable pinky hook provide comfort for smaller hands.
Special Features
This single horn features an lyre/screw-style attachment on the leadpipe to accept a compatible hand crutch or further ergonomic attachments. Also featuring an extended mouthpiece receiver over a gold-brass leadpipe, offering superior durability and protection against wear and deterioration, making it a robust choice for students and professionals alike.
What's Included
- Zippered Fixed bell case (this case does not comply with airline carry-on size requirements)
Warranty
Your investment is protected with the Houghton Horns New Instrument Warranty. Enjoy two years of coverage for defects in material and workmanship. Keep your instrument in perfect condition.
