Yes this was our intent...

with no trade shows happening in the near future (sigh) I have an idea to run by y'all:

If anyone would possibly want to take the horn for a test spin (US only due to shipping costs) please send an email to info@austincustombrass.com. Perhaps we can get enough people to test the horn each for a day or two upon receipt of the horn. I'll pay all shipping charges of course.

Best,
