Steve,
I was sharing your comments with the Boise State University Horn Professor, Dr.
David Saunders. We enjoyed the second to last sentence very much! Dr.
Saunders would like to know more about your horn with the C valve. Does it
have a thumb ascending valve? Who made it?
Thank you for sharing!
Jennie
