Squeeze Horns on the Playa!

I set some friends up with squeeze horns for their trip to Burning Man 2011. Some photos coming back now. Will add more as they come available.

Reader KP Sends Some Great Pics of a Very Large Horn!

In response to comment below…
Sir, you are in luck! While not the exact horn. I do have, in my personal collection, one large Taxi horn and I am attaching an mp3 for your listening pleasure.

Hi John,

Found your website content very good and exciting! I had been to a vintage car rally in Pune, India and found an ample-sized horn attached to a 1969 Italian Piaggio “autorickshaw” (a 3-wheeler for public transport). I’m not sure about its size, but it must be somewhere around 24-30 inches long. I have attached a few pics of the vehicle with the horn. The sound was thunderous and kids enjoyed squeezing it. The owner said he had to import the horn from UK. I tried searching online but couldnt find any of this giant size.
Keep up the good work!
Regards
KP
Here’s the pics of an awesome horn. Don’t you want to hear it?

KP also had suggestions for the site especially around how I can accommodate contributions. I mentioned I’m in the process of building a Facebook page and hopefully will have something up in the next week or so. In the meantime please feel free to leave a comment or send me an email john[AT]squeezehorns.com

Thanks KP! Much appreciated.

“4-Banger” Squeeze Horn!

Don’t see many of these around. Lots of 3 reed. Notice he’s using a hose clamp to attach it to his bike. Sometimes I feel a little wary of leaving my bike locked up somewhere because I’ve just got a wing nut holding my big brass 14″ horn on. You know, maybe it’s something someone would rip off. A hose clamp would certainly slow them down at least.  There’s a 3 banger over at Amazon (affiliate link).
