Woodhead Horn Repair currently has new M. Jiracek & sons natural horns in stock.

M. Jiracek & sons is a Czech company established in the early 1990s. It specialises in the manufacture of French horns and trumpets – to both modern and historic designs.

Price: £2350.00 incl. VAT

Model 510 has the same design and bore (11.7mm) as the 110 but has a smaller bell copied from a Franz Weckert, resembling a French, rather than Bohemian style instrument.

All instruments are supplied with:

• Crooks in the keys of C alto, Bb, A, G, F, E, Eb, D, C basso, and a coupler to create Bb basso when used in conjunction with the C basso crook.
• Baroque tuning adaptor

All models have an unlacquered, polished brass finish. Jiracek natural horns come with different finishes on the inside of the bell – either polished brass or matt black. Our stocks vary, therefore if you require a specific finish please specify when ordering.
