Anyone else need a HMV 202 or 203 horn?

Post by Garret »

Hello Everyone,

I now own HMV 202 #80 with its original horn.

I am also aware of an empty 202 cabinet here on the European continent that literally just needs a horn, and wondering if there is any interest in having replacement horns made.

It won't be cheap, but it is doable. I have two rough quotes, one from a firm in France and another from someone trusted in Spain. A prototype would cost 4 000 to 5200 EUR, and if done in a batch of five or more, the cost would go down to about 2 000 EUR per horn.

So... Do you have an empty 202 or 203 cabinet that needs a horn? Feel free to respond or dm.
