I'm a strong advocate of having at least two horns to play on. A Chambers in
decent condition can be gotten for $500-600. Reynolds valves were so well
manufactured that a 30 year old horn shouldn't need more than the rotors fitted.
It will take care of all your big horn needs, and you'll have plenty left
over to get a small, agile, medium throat horn for the rest of your playing. I
have my Reynolds paired with a Paxman 42, and I'm set for anything. Both
horns together cost less than $3000, and the Paxman took most of it. The Reynolds
cost $457, new, in 1962
So, when are those times for "all your big horn needs"? Nobody in this town seems to have problems with their "small, agile, medium throat horn(s)."
