What to Know

The Ricco Kühn W 293 is a custom-built full double horn in F/Bb. It is made or assembled in Germany.

The W 293 is Kühn’s traditional Reißmann-model full double. W 293 Innovation and W 293 X are separately identified models; their specifications and prices should not be combined.

Bell: Detachable; Materials: Yellow brass; Linkage: Minibal standard; string available as an option; Finish options: Unlacquered raw brass, lacquered, or custom or special order.

Because this is a custom-built model, individual examples may not share a single fixed specification.
