A Classy Horn for Every Player
Blessing’s BFH1461 is an intermediate double horn with executive features at a budget-friendly price point. When you play the BFH1461, you’ll find that your air is met with the perfect amount of resistance as it travels through a nickel-plated rose brass lead pipe. Designed with Kruspe wrap tubing and rotor string linkage, the BFH1461 delivers outstanding tuning consistency and lightning-fast valve response, time and time again. Blessing has also included an adjustable pinky hook that allows everyone from small students to adult performers to find a comfortable fit for their hand. Horn players at Sweetwater admire the BFH1461's white-collar details — like a detachable screw bell and a low-profile gig bag — which give players the luxuries of a professional horn without the sky-high price tag. When you invest in the BFH1461, you’ll get a long-lasting horn that is appropriate for every stage of your career.

Rich, velvety sound that won’t go unnoticed
Outfitted in eye-catching silver plating and glazed with a clear lacquer, the BFH1461 sounds as good as it looks. Its traditional German Kruspe wrap tubing flares out to a large throat and ends at a 12.25-inch nickel silver detachable bell, adding sonority and depth to your sound as it passes through. You’ll welcome the mellowing effects of its clear lacquer finish, too, which add tonal character while still allowing your sound to travel to the deepest corners of the performance hall.
Detachable screw bell and backpack-style case
Thanks to Blessing, detachable screw bells aren’t just for professionals anymore. The BFH-1461 features a detachable bell that sits safely inside its high-end Blessing C-1461DFR lightweight backpack-style case. You’ll appreciate its travel-friendly compact design, especially if you’re upgrading to the BFH1461 from a single or double horn with a fixed bell!
