Psycho 5th valve wrap!

Out of context, it looks pretty normal, but 164's are HUGE!

This is my horn that had previously been over at the Horn Guys. Noah runs a low overhead operation so we are able to offer it at a significantly lower price - about half of what a new one would cost. The 5th rotor can be configured as a 2-3 combo, or with the pictured tritone extension. I preferred the tritone setup so that the 2-4 combinations could be played as 5th only.

This is not a solo horn. It is a weapon of mass destruction. It lets YOU decide how much you want to be heard.

If it doesn't sell, it comes back home and I will have to learn Bb fingerings - I really don't have time for that, though.
