Specifically designed with smaller hands in mind, the instrument features a small wrap design ensuring it is lightweight and easy to hold. The design of the JP162 is tailored to ensure a durable instrument geared towards younger musicians and first time players with the inclusion of neoprene valves bumpers and adjustable duck's feet / finger ring. This also ensures versatility of the instrument within schools and music services. The JP162 has been well regarded in the industry and comes recommended by Mike Thompson, an International French Horn soloist who described it as "delightful from the word go, a total thumbs up".
The JP162 F French Horn is constructed from yellow brass throughout and is configured in a small wrap F design.

These features ensure the instrument is suitable for younger players without affecting the quality of the instrument's performance and are the reason the instrument has become so popular with the UK education sector.
