Victor V Oak Spear Tip Horn in Trouble

[jvic]

Help, new to this forum but not new to my Victor V. Problem is that the collar is coming off of the wooden horn and the horn now drops about 3 inches lower and I am affraid it is going to fall off. Also seems that the elbow will not stay seated under the half-moon bracket on the back arm. Should there be some sort of gasket in there? How do I remove the collar and reattach? Thanks for the help.

If it were my horn, I'd send it to a repairman. How about Don Gfell in Ohio? (send me a PM and I'll forward his email) Do others have a better suggestion? Jerry Blais

Bill White also does excellent repair work. Not a complaint, but Don had my horn for 6 months so be prepared to be hornless for a while while repairs are being performed.

Thanks so much. Any contact information for Bill White. New to the forum and can't locate him. I am in touch with Don already and will see him at the show in Warren NJ that is about a half hour from home.
