I’ve been putting off thinking about this, but the time is almost here! DS will almost certainly need to fly to at least one audition with his horn. Does not have a detachable bell. It was not particularly expensive (for a French horn) and will likely need to be upgraded if he ends up doing a performance major. How terrible is it to check it? I’ve read some things that say wrap it in bubble wrap and it should be okay. yes? not worth the risk? The only alternative is buying a seat for it I assume?
