LaskeyClassic F Series American Shank French Horn Mouthpiece in Silver 85F
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The Laskey Classic 85F is a silver-plated French horn mouthpiece with an American shank and the F Series’ deep, funnel-shaped cup. That cup design is described as giving notes a rich, weighty resonance and rounded quality while retaining clear articulation. The traditional rim has a definite high point near its inner edge, providing a stable reference for lip position. Its rounded overall contour is intended to help reduce fatigue when practice or performance runs long.
Strong match
Who this is for
