French Horns

Ultrasonic Cleaning

• Single Horns - $125

• Double Horns - $185

Full ultrasonic cleaning including rotor porting and alignment with bumper and water key cork replacements. Rotor bumper stops can be replaced with Kraus synthetic bumper stops, or with traditional nitrile cord. The synthetic stops are firm, quiet, and have a better feel than nitrile cord in my opinion, but if you prefer the traditional nitrile or silicone cord, then that works for me!  This service is routine shop maintenance for brass instruments and is recommended at least once a year.
