MAROON GEM
I bought this paper horn from Jerry a year ago. I had completely forgot about it until I get a call one evening. I put it on my Gem just playing around and I really like it there. I think it has found its new home.
Cleaned up with Photoshop

Re: MAROON GEM
Nice horn, but why would you take the time to touch it up in photoshop since its going to look untouched when you display it? Just curious.

I was just looking at what it would look like all shined up. I don't think it's worth the trouble since it looks good untouched and original.

Re: MAROON GEM
I agree, it's nice and VERY unusual. A little character is to be expected anyway.

Re: MAROON GEM
How does it sound, as compared to the standard red Gem horn?

Re: MAROON GEM
I think it sounds much better. It is softer and don't have that tinny sound.Edisone wrote:How does it sound, as compared to the standard red Gem horn?
