Shires .525 Compatability

Post by Mamaposaune »

Sorry if I missed this one on the slide/bell compatibility threads, but does anyone know what horns (if any) would mate up with a Shires Custom ,525?

They use the same connector as the large horns, so they'll kind of fit Bachs and Edwards. Shires uses a sliiiiightly different taper and different threads so they don't always work.

Thanks, Aiden that's helpful.
And, I realize I meant to put this on the Instruments topic, not classifieds.
