The original "Frankenphone" horn

I was going through my boxes of parts and came across this horn that I got years ago. It came with a pile of parts and incomplete machines. Someone butchered up a otherwise nice witches hat horn and ended up with this. Why??? Maybe it was some mid-evil science project. I couldn't pitch it out.

Ah but the question is how good does it sound

It sounds surprisingly pretty good.

Looks like something from Dr. Seuss.

Maybe it's a sorting horn.

Good one, Howard! The "sorting hat" came to mind; I just couldn't come-up with a clever post...

( I wonder if it likes Vernon Dalhart...

You mean, "he who must not be named"??

Funny!

It looks indeed!

I'm not surprised at all that it sounds good, as it actually approximates an exponential horn shape better that an "untouched" conical horn does.
