Bill White is from Mason, Michigan.  I found out about him because he sold a 
few of his horns on eBay.  I needed a mahogany spearpoint horn for my Victor 
VI and bought one from him.  I was very pleased with the quality of his 
horns.  They are all wood and match the original horns perfectly.  I think 
he is a retired cabinet maker and started making wooden horns.  I don't know 
how long he has been making them but I know he hasn't done any advertising 
in the phono publications.

Hello,

May I have more information about Bill White?  Are his horns all wood and 
how long has he been making them and why isn't he on this list?

I would be interested in knowing who makes horns these days, I heard a while 
ago there was a man who made his with fiberglass and covered them with wood. 
I did not know anyone besides Don made them.  Don is amazing and his horn 
display is the highlight of the show.
