| Sounds like you might have a horn with a bigger bore than your Strad. That can cut down your range. You may also have to change to a different mouthpiece to fit this horn. The other thing about horns is that the real 'electric kool aid acid test' of whether the horn will work for you seems to come after you've had it for about a month. By then the 'gee whiz' phase has worn off and reality has set in. All horns have a shortcoming or two----the question is, can you live with it?
Have fun!
