【Voltage Compatibility】
When using electrical appliances, please note that they are designed for Japanese voltage specifications (90-110V), so if you use them with a different voltage, it may cause a malfunction.
【Plug Type】
Our products use Japanese plug types (A or B type).
Please use a conversion adapter if necessary.
【Important Note on Transformers and Adapters】
A transformer adjusts voltage to match your device’s requirements.
A conversion adapter only changes the plug shape and does not adjust voltage.
Using only a conversion adapter without a transformer may result in damage to the product.
【Liability】
We are not responsible for malfunctions or damages caused by improper use, such as operating the product without a transformer.
This is a completely new type of French horn, using a tube length one octave shorter than a standard B♭ single horn. It's in the key of High B♭. Since it uses a standard French horn mouthpiece, it's easy to switch to from a regular French horn. It's suitable for a wide range of uses, including a young child's first French horn, practice in small spaces, horn ensembles, and stage performances.
A mini pocket horn, a long-awaited instrument for horn players. It opens up many possibilities, not only for horn ensembles, but also for use as a post horn or a substitute for a corno da caccia.
Playing it is very simple. It's supported at two points—the bell and the lever—and played just like a French horn. The PFH-500 is in the key of a B♭ single French horn, one octave higher, but the fingering is the same as for a B♭ single French horn. When reading standard French horn sheet music written in F, you'll need to reinterpret it in B♭, just like with a B♭ single French horn.
While the main parts, including the bell, are made of brass, the outer tuning slides are made of nickel silver, which provides just the right amount of resistance. Despite its compact size, it offers a solid playing feel and produces bright, rich overtones.
Set contents: Pocket horn body, dedicated semi-hard case, mouthpiece (included mouthpiece and mouthpiece receiver have American shanks), instruction manual (with fingering chart), warranty card, cleaning cloth
