Mr. Semman is an unknown quantity at this point
Two years ago, my wife caught me looking at the First Act Horns at BJ's. Next thing I knew, she had purchased one for me for Christmas. I used it for several months, but the third valave kept sticking, so I brought it back to Newton, MA to have it repaired. I don't know what they did, but it still stuck, so I have relinquished it to the basement. I might use it for decorating my study/ laundryroom later. While the horn has a good sound, it is smaller than other makers, and the valves are poorly designed with burrs. My advice is to save your money for a better named horn. Even used horns on e-bay would be better. To me, there is nothing more distracting then to have to stop in the middle of a bar to dry off and re-oil a valve.

I would not even consider giving you mine, as I have a conscience.

Have a great holiday season.
