Conn CHR512 Double French Horn

The Conn CHR512 Kruspe-Wrap Double Horn is an excellent choice for advancing players seeking professional feel with approachable response. Inspired by the legendary Conn 8D, the CHR512 features an Eastlake, Ohio–made leadpipe taken directly from Conn’s flagship double horn, delivering an open, centered response with less effort and a compact, focused sound.

Designed with comfort and adaptability in mind, this intermediate double horn includes features found on Conn’s professional models, such as an adjustable finger hook, mouthpipe water key, and a reversible change rotor. Each instrument is inspected and set up by Conn Selmer technicians in Elkhart, Indiana, and ships in a durable ABS case built to withstand daily use.
