 Re: Leblanc Basset Horn Age/Serial Numbers

My LeBlanc basset horn was bought new in 1988 and is serial #9374. It has a lovely sound and sounds like the narrow bore bassets of other brands I've heard in person or in recordings. It doesn't have near the resistance that the narrow bore models that Ive tried.

It is a great horn although I have to pull out the neckjoint 1/4-1/2" (either at the base or at the mouthpiece / neckjoint junction (or better both) to get it in tune with A440 instruments. It is dead on in tune at A442 so it must've been made for the European market. Had thought of buying a longer neckjoint that they are apparently are making with the newer models. Are others' LeBlanc basset horns also a bit high in pitch?
