I model the GS1 on the 1933 Carl Geyer horn made for Farkas (which I now own), however I also add my own special touches. This process involves many details, and a large workspace like mine is required for assembly and repair (pictured left).

Pictured below are snapshots of the assembly process. Each horn I build involves time, patience and a keen eye for detail.
  Sanding the bell.
  Cutting the bell.
  Fitting the first branch.
  Aligning the valve section.
  Preparing to solder.

All horns now include my newly designed valves made by Meinlschmidt with lubrication channels on each valve for better maintenance and longer lasting valves.
