Over 10 years ago I purchased a Holton H379 nickel plated double horn and I haven't touched it in over 5. After some consideration I have decided that I am very unlikely to play this horn again and rather than just let it sit and collect dust, I'd like to let someone else have the opportunity to enjoy it as I have.
I just pulled it out this morning to take a look at it and see what sort of condition it is in. Surprisingly all of the slides still move freely and 3 out of the 4 rotors have no issues. The ring finger rotor however has seized up. There is a small bit or warping on the bell. Other than the 3rd rotor and the small warping It is in excellent condition. The finish is pristine, I always had a guard to protect it from oils that may have been on my hands. I will have pictures available upon request.
Because I have been out of touch with the horn for so long I really haven't much idea what it is worth, but I do know I purchased it for upwards of $2000. I think that asking for $750 seems reasonable but I am up for negotiation. I will ship it at my own cost. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at SuleimanRabie@comcast.net
