Hey guys, wondering if anyone has an experience with this horn? And also needed a little advice.
I currently have a king 1130 flugabone project in the works. But I'm starting to wonder if I should go all out and get a Wunderhorn.. when I'm looking into what it's costing me to build out the king I'm just about halfway there on the Wunderhorn. Think I can swing it if I move a few things.
Thanks in advance for any input

No experience with them, but I did look at them (there may have been drooling involved) before embarking on the Lake City flugabone project. They look awesome, tbh.

I wish they sold the design Leonhard Paul plays, but yeah, Schagerl has some cool instrument designs.

Yeah some pretty awesome stuff.. I would go for one of those in a second.. it would be tough to abandon the flugabone project, but one of these horns would be out of this world. I could probably just have Melanie touch up my flugabone a little bit and keep it for practice horn learning valves and what have you. I could probably still just barely swing one of these without having to sell the flugabone.. decisions decisions

Re: Schagerl Wunderhorn V
The Wunderhorn V is possibly the coolest-looking bell-front valved low brass instrument of all time IMO. And I'm sure it plays fantastically like almost all Schagerl horns do. But it's quite a bit larger than any flugabone (.551" bore!), as it is a large beer hall-style bass trumpet, so it doesn't do the flugabone thing. If you just want "bell front valved tenor instrument" with an unlimited budget, then it's pretty hard to beat.

Re: Schagerl Wunderhorn V
Yeah Roger that.. I was kinda wanting a larger bore instrument since bass bone is my main piece.. I don't know.. might just build my super pimped out flugabone and be happy..
Appreciate your flugabone videos by the way.. would love to see more!
