Good evening!

Will a Shires with a Thayer valve and cut bell fit in this case? Has anyone seen or done it? I have only seen standard valves in the pictures of the case and I would hate to buy one and have my horn not fit.

Best,

Yup!

I finally got in touch with someone from Shires who confirmed it.

:good:

Thanks for the update. I think that’s the direction I want to go for one of my horns. Good to know I can keep my eyes out for a pre owned one…

I believe they sell them on the Shires site.
