Default Re: Horn - New vs Original

From personal fine-point competition experience, what they will gig you on with the Sparton repro horn is the size and finish of the projector screws/nuts, ...and the tag. Therefore you can tell they are not exact reproductions.

My personal opinion is that an original horn will likely set you back between $125-$175 depending on sheetmetal condition. Then by the time you freight the horn motor up to Bill in Rome, New York to be rebuilt, and then strip the sheetmetal, work out the dents, paint and reassemble, you will have more money & time invested than buying an A&L horn so you need to choose which side of the fence is more important to you.
