Feedback, Bohm & Meinl

Post by Tubahead84 »

I am about to purchase a one of these horns, hopefully soon, I really love it, but don't know much about them. If anyone out there has anything they would like to say, I would love it! It's their CC horn, by the way. Thanks to anyone who helps!
They may take our life, but they will never take our feedom!!!

A large 4/4 (some call it a 5/4 but I wouldn't) with a very dark tone.
In general, the cut horns had much better intonation than the factory CC's. The BBbs had good intonation, but the factory must not have known something guys like Bob Rusk did when they made the CC's.
FWIW, I prefer the slanted rotary Marzans (basically the same horn.)
