Hi
What can you guys tell me about this horn that came with my model B.
Could it be original or repro?
Cheers

Re: Standard B horn identification
I don't think it is technically correct but it looks very nice and it must be must weigh much less than a 14" black & brass horn. If you like it, who else do you have to please? Jerry

Re: Standard B horn identification
Thanks for the information guys.
I looked at lots of pictures after buying the Standard B and did not see one aluminium horn.
So i wasn't sure what i had.
It's come up looking great after a polish......it does have one scratch on the inside that's a bit deep to remove.
I have an old Black & Brass horn also....the dimensions of each are:
BLACK & BRASS: Length: 14" opening diameter: 7" weight : 200 grams
Aluminium : Length: 10" opening diameter: 8" weight: 100 grams
It will be interesting to hear the difference between the two horns.
I think the aluminium horn will have a better spread of sound....not sure which one will be louder.
Cheers
