Re: Worth the purchase?

Well I'd like to see a reply from those who really know their older horns, but this is not a Bundy (the case is a Bundy case though). Bundys are plastic horns and this one is clearly wood. It looks like an old Buffet to me (but I'd defer to expert eyes). Then again there is the condition of the wood. I had a wood mouthpiece that survived a flood, and the wood took on the appearance of this horn (so I'd be concerned about that). There then is the calculation whether the cost of an effective restoration would make this horn a worthwhile investment. BUT....... you may be looking for a $20 horn that plays ok.......and this is not that horn.
