McCracken Horns builds custom horns to the player’s specifications and offers repair, modification, and design work for a wide range of setups — from single horns to triples.
George McCracken has developed two exceptional mouthpipes, the 14 and the 16, and the exchangeable mouthpipe system gives players the option of different mouthpipe designs.
The cut bell option not only makes for a more compact instrument for travel, it can also greatly improve an older instrument whose bell has become too thin.
Custom Horns
Create the horn of your dreams.
George McCracken’s custom work grows out of player-specific ideas, design questions, and long experience building instruments that solve real musical problems.
In this video, the entire horn section of the Barcelona Symphony Orchestra is performing on George McCracken Model 7 horns.
