Yamaha YHR-672N Fixed-Bell French Horn - Nickel Silver

The Yamaha YHR‑672 Full Double Horn blends the rich resonance of a traditional horn with modern refinements designed to enhance warmth, depth, and playability. Built with an extra‑large bell, traditional wrap, and advanced component design, the YHR‑672 delivers luxurious tone, powerful projection, and expressive freedom for serious horn players.

At the core of the YHR‑672 is a new leadpipe inspired by Yamaha’s renowned YHR‑862 custom model, producing stable intonation, rich overtones, and exceptional responsiveness across all registers. The combination of a traditional wrap and extra‑large bell with an unsoldered rim creates a broad, resonant sound that fills the room with warmth and depth while retaining clarity and focus.

Designed for comfort and agility, the horn features a short‑stroke 4th‑lever mechanism, enabling quick, precise switching between the F and B♭ sides. Squared main and F tuning slides, along with a repositioned main brace, contribute to well‑balanced playability and consistent response throughout the range.

Constructed with nickel silver main tubing and tuning slides, the YHR‑672N offers a more traditional horn voice with bright, colorful tone and excellent durability. Nickel silver’s resistance to corrosion and increased hardness provide long‑term reliability while allowing the instrument to respond effortlessly to every playing nuance.

Ideal for advanced students, educators, and professional performers, the Yamaha YHR‑672 delivers refined tone, dependable response, and Yamaha’s renowned craftsmanship in a responsive, performance‑ready double horn.
