Where to get a good snake?

When I was cleaning out my horn earlier this week, the snake that I was using had one of the brushes break off in the horn (luckily it was where I could easily get it out). The wire had rusted and the brush just broke off. It was one of those from Yamaha low brass maintenance kits. I would like one with a bit stiffer bristles as the Yamaha was very soft and it didn't feel like it was really cleaning the insides very well. Where can I get a good quality snake with good, stiff brushes on both ends? The Yamaha was found at my local music store as I didn't find anything at a hardware store. Thanks for your input.

+1. I use these as well. The bristles aren't stiff, but there are a lot of 'em!

Got a red belly black in the garden, if you can get him before he gets you.
