AMATI IS NOT WELL-KNOWN IN AMERICA, HOWEVER THEY ARE THEY OLDEST CONTINUOUS INSTRUMENT MANUFACTURER IN EUROPE, COMMENCING PRODUCTION AROUND 1669, AND THEY SUPPLIED AUSTRIA AND THE OTHER EUROPEAN CAPITOLS WITH INSTRUMENTS FOR THEIR ORCHESTRAS (CHECK THEIR HISTORY ONLINE). THE BUILD QUALITY OF THIS HORN IS IMPRESSIVE, AND IT PLAYS FAR BEYOND WHAT YOU WOULD EXPECT WITH A HIGHER-END MOUTHPIECE, LIKE THE OTTO LINK NY 6* OR THE YAMAHA CUSTOM 6CM OR HIGHER.
