WTB/WTT: Handmade Hirsbrunner HB2P

Post by sousakrue »

Title says it all. If you have a Handmade HB2P (mid to late 80's) for sale please contact me.

If interested, I have a PT6P-S with the Baer mods I'd be willing to trade in excellent shape. Trade is preferred but can offer cash purchase as well.

Adding a 5th valve to this instrument is a fairly easy modification. Peter Hirsbrunner will sell you all the parts. Nate Griffith here in Omaha did this modification to a horn owned by one of my students. It doesn't make sense, but the horn played better and was more free-blowing after the addition. Go figure.
