Make a confident start on French horn. The Yamaha YHR-314II is a single F student French horn known for its easy response, stable intonation, and classroom-tough build. A tapered gold-brass leadpipe and .472" bore provide comfortable resistance and a focused, colorful sound, while Yamaha’s ergonomic wrap promotes natural hand position and smooth airflow. Nickel-silver inner/outer slides fight corrosion, and tapered rotary valves with string linkage deliver quiet, dependable action. Finished in clear lacquer for a warm sheen on stage, the YHR-314II is a band-director favorite for durability and playability.
