Each consignment horn that we sell is thoroughly tested by our staff to ensure that you are receiving a quality product. These are the thoughts that were shared by our staff:  

This horn is very free blowing, thanks to the classic Merewhether system. It is lacquered, and the lacquer is in decent shape. The horn has a beautifully bright sound without being brittle.
