AG-3000 (AG3K)
|
Atkinson's PHILOSOPHY: "PERFECTION Takes Time."
Atkinson Geyer Model AG3Ks are meticulously made one at a time with finely fitted joints, artful bracing, and polished to a mirror finish. Sounds great? We don't stop there! It has a wonderful balance and is physically ultra-light to reduce fatigue and improve response. We make everything in house and use both old world techniques and modern computer technology. Still not enough? The high register and sound are magical, the staccatos are crisp while the legatos are smooth and fluid, allowing you to let your artistry shine. AG3K is the only Horn in the WORLD made with original Geyer valves and bore sizes so we can truly say there is a bit of Carl Geyer in every AG3K that you order. The AG3K has a uni-body valve section and hollow valves making for a balanced and smoother playing horn. Our tubes are precision drawn to give you consistent thickness and hand fitted slides for smooth pulls. The crooks are formed in hardened steel molds using carbide balls to give you a glass-like interior finish to resist corrosion from the inside. Bells are hand cut, formed, and spun to original Chicago-Geyer dimensions. Pitch is critical and set at A440-A442 with optimum mouthpiece fit into the mouthpipe. |
