Anyone have or have an opinion on these Opera horns from Peru? How are they in terms of a repro compared to what else is available?
Also, I am wondering who is the best wizard are restoring the original horn. I have an Opera that came out of a farm auction in MN and the guy was quite handy and tried a go at fixing it. It has the original decals the rest of the horn has at least been lightened and reglued, maybe refinished. It’s not bad, actually the bell looks good from a distance, but it is splitting. The elbo he spray painted brown. Interestingly didn’t touch the rest of the machine, it is completely original and super nice.
