The York Preference euphonium YO-EU3067 is a 4 valve compensating instrument.
The mouthpiece receiver is not soldered to the bell but connected by only a brace and allows for free vibration and an enhanced tone. The spring damper set creates quieter valve action.
York euphoniums feature an excellent intonation and even response through all registers.
