Well balanced for marching band use.

The colors and finishes shown may vary from those on the actual products.

The YHR-302M shares many of the same warm tonal colors as our concert models. But more than a traditional French horn, the 302M has been designed to project its rich tonal colors across the marching field; we've added strength to the natural beauty of its sound.

Features

Nickel silver inner and outer slides

The use of nickel silver inner and outer slides ensures better fit and less chance of corrosion because nickel-silver is harder and more durable than brass.

Honed Valves

The precise fit between valve casings and pistons after honing means no air leakage.

Pressure-formed tubing

Perfectly rounded tubing results in less turbulence and a smoother air flow, thus allowing for an excellent scale and reduced resistance.

Laser-fused pluzuma welded bell

A high-energy laser fuses the brass together for a virtually seamless bell which allows continuous, even vibrations.

Hand-lapped valves and slides

Hand-lapping valves and slides ensures an absolutely perfect fit and seal between the valve pistons and casing or slide parts. Such a perfect fit helps to achieve smooth air flow and smooth action and improve the response and intonation of the instrument.

Well balanced

All Yamaha marching instruments are well-balanced so they are easy to hold while marching.

Heavy bracing

All Yamaha marching instruments have heavy bracing throughout so they are more durable at vulnerable points and can withstand marching band.

Available feature
