Yamaha YBH-301MS Marching Baritone Horn - Silver-plated

Featuring a large bore for a deep and warm sound, the YBH-301M is ideal for DCI style marching ensembles which have no trombones. It can add a unique voice to your band, darker than a trombone yet brighter than a euphonium; a very rich and strong sound. In addition, the 301M is a well-balanced instrument, making it easier to play, and easier to maneuver with in formations.

Honed valves
The precise fit between valve casings and pistons after honing means no air leakage

Pressure-formed tubing
Perfectly rounded tubing results in less turbulence and a smoother air flow, thus allowing for an excellent scale and reduced resistance

Laser-fused pluzuma-welded slides
A high-energy laser fuses the brass together for a virtually seamless bell which allows continuous, even vibrations

Hand-lapped valves and slides
Hand-lapping valves and slides ensures an absolutely perfect fit and seal between the valve pistons and casing or slide parts. Such a perfect fit helps to achieve smooth air flow and smooth action and improve the response and intonation of the instrument

Well balanced
All Yamaha marching instruments are well-balanced so they are easy to hold while marching

Heavy bracing
All Yamaha marching instruments have heavy bracing throughout so they are more durable at vulnerable points and can withstand marching band
