A good repairman can change the pinkie ring on the 6D - and also on the single horns, many of which have too large a spread for young students. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wilbert Kimple" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, January 01, 2003 1:53 PM Subject: Re: [Hornlist] Student Horns
: : While the Conn 6D is an excellent horn, the left : hand spread required makes it totally unplayable : for many students. : : I would stick with either Holton or Yamaha, which : work well with smaller hands, and avoid the : temptation to purchase the lower priced Jupiter : horns. : : In fact, the Yamaha 567 has a widely adjustable : thumb lever, making it ideal for both small and : large hands. It's a very high quality horn, in my : opinion, and realitively low priced. : : Wilbert in SC : _______________________________________________ : Horn mailing list : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/listinfo/horn _______________________________________________ Horn mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/listinfo/horn
