Wanted: Searchlight Horn for Victor

Post by cleveland1996 »

Hi Folks,

Well, I’m on a Searchlight horn kick now.. I’m in the process of restoring a couple of cylinder horns but would like to find an Original Searchlight horn for a Victor phono..I prefer an original horn that needs restoration, but will consider all options..

Anything out there?

Thanks!

Joe Cleveland

I have one (red) but no idea how I would get it to FL. Im in Idaho and shipping would be crazy expensive.

Would a cylinder horn be a decent basis to modify? I have a large Searchlight cylinder horn in good enough shape to restore but shabby enough it is not like losing a mint original. It's not as good an idea as a proper Victor horn but it may be an option.
