"Masterhand Prestige" instruments

Postby elihellsten » Thu Jul 19, 2012 8:56 am

I've recently been offered to buy a baritone horn quite cheap. The bell says "Masterhand Prestige". Google tells me nothing, any clues if they are decent horns? Sounds budget to me. The baritone looks like this;

Have seen something like that before, in Sweden. Maybe some older GDR import?

Were that bottom bow thinned out just a bit more (front-to-back) with a hammer, that thing might work out well as a doorstop for those heavy commercial aluminum-frame/plate-glass entry doors that often prove difficult to wedge open.

Made in India? It has that anorexic look so many Indian instruments have.
