I can only assume that, in that fellow's lexicon, "Restored" means "put a replica horn on it"...

Around here, "restored" usually means, "it's been all re-done over"...
I remember one time being in a local convenience store getting coffee, and overhearing one of the regulars describing to his friend how "one time he was working on a band-saw and cut-off three fingers on his left-hand and had to go to the emergency-room to get them "re-sewn on".
( I almost axed him, "who sewed them on the first time"... but I was pressed for time, and I also noticed he was packing heat on his hip...
)
Ah, the vox populi...

Like Lizzie Borden often said: It's better to think first before axing..."The phonograph is not of any commercial value."
