Alexander 103 French Horn from 1912 Rare Collector's Item and Great Player
You rarely see these early Alexander 103s for sale! The Alexander 103 was first put into production in 1907. This Alexander 103 was dated to 1912 from an Alexander employee, at the very least Pre-WWI. It had a recent valve job so it plays great! Great highs, strong lows, intonation consistent. Smaller bore than the modern 103s. The horn is built at A=438 (common late Romantic pitch) and takes a narrow shank mouthpiece, but with the right mouthpiece it can play at A=440 fine with the main and Bb tuning slides pushed in. If necessary there is room to shorten either the main or Bb tuning slide to bring it more easily up to modern pitch. The bell and bell tail have numerous patches, but the metal is otherwise strong. A wonderful player and collectors item! Comes with the original case too. Feel free to check out my website and ask any questions you may have.
