Be careful of the older PT-1's. A friend of mine has one.....great horn....but after he had the 1st slide cut to get it in tune. Perantoni suggested it and blamed a design flaw that wasn't caught until after production of the first few models. So watch out!
I, myself, like the VMI 3301 (or 3302 with the 5th valve) for a BBb horn from that factory. I think it centers a lot better than the PT-1....but only if you like pistons....which I do.
No matter what, get the horn that YOU like the most and the one that YOU think you sound best on!
