F French Horn (student) – FH20
Starting out on the French horn shouldn’t mean fighting an instrument that is physically too large or mechanically stubborn.
The Wessex ‘Student’ F French Horn (FH20) is a beautifully compact, single f french horn designed specifically to give young players and school beginners a comfortable, highly rewarding start.
Weighing in at a highly manageable 3.8 lbs (1.7kg), its scaled-down body diameter and ergonomic wrap mean that small hands can maintain an optimal, relaxed playing posture without straining.
While it is exceptionally light and nimble, we have refused to compromise on the tonal core.
Built with a stunning yellow brass bell and leadpipe paired with cupronickel tuning pipes, this student french horn centers beautifully, offering a warm, rich voice that naturally slots securely across the registers.
Complete with a durable, hard ABS case for school-bus protection and a high-quality mouthpiece, the FH20 offers music programs and parents an elite, accessible alternative to traditional, cumbersome starter horns.
