Hi and thanks for looking..I have a nice Searchlight Horn that has been repainted/restored..it turned out very nice. The striping on the inside of the horn is nice but not perfectly crisp.. Asking $300. I am located around Pensacola Florida and travel to Northwest Alabama periodically and will be glad to meet to save on shipping. I have no problem shipping this horn but due to the large size shipping in the continental US will run around $125..
I have one of Justin’s repro Tea Tray Co cranes that I used with this horn..if the buyer is interested, it is available for extra money..
Feel free to ask any questions..
Joe

That’s an interesting question. I own both so here’s my opinion.gunnarthefeisty wrote: Fri Apr 30, 2021 3:20 pm do these have better sound than large morning glory horns?
The biggest difference is that the searchlight horn projects the sound straight out into the room as opposed to following the shape of the horn. They are both equally loud and clear. It would be a really hard decision if I had to pick between the two. As far as looks go I much prefer the searchlight horn over the morning glory.
You won’t be disappointed by the sound quality if you buy this one.
I hope this helps.
