New Thor

Post by cle_tuba »

Hello guys!
Has anyone tried the new Thor?
They can tell which changes were beyond the 48 cm bell?
Has anyone tried it?
Regards to all ... :tuba:

Sounds closer and closer to a piston version of the 163... Just my opinion, I'd still like to compare one side by side.

Meh. Just a wider bell flare. I personally like the original better. The wider bell makes this horn pretty top heavy. I'm not a big guy so I noticed this pretty quickly. YMMV
