Bonk

$600.00

"Bonk" is an Analog Tele-Phonographer made from an old car horn, with parts from two different trombones and a trumpet. It is attached to a base made from salvaged steel and left uncoated so the brass and steel may age gracefully.

This piece is really superb. The combination of the wide-throated car horn and the large bell from a trombone provide a rich thick midrange sound in a very small footprint. last summer, I took two pieces like this to the Central Pennsylvania Festival of the Arts and I think they both sold on the first day. Selling one like this is always hard for me, because I definitely fall in love with this compact yet hearty shape. It’s a very powerful sound-to-size ratio, and an adorable set of visual proportions.

The compactness of this piece makes it extra portable. You can definitely take this to whatever room you want, or out on to the patio for quarantinis. it projects sound so well, you are likely to annoy your neighbors when you play “Mambo Number 5” on repeat.

This horn will make the sound from your iPhone or iPad louder and richer, using no electricity, wires, plugs, or batteries. The shape of the horn is enough to add 25 decibels or more! But it's not just about volume, it's about quality of sound as well.

This work of art is hand-made, one-of-a-kind, and was created entirely in America with reclaimed materials.

This piece is shown with a stainless dock that fits every iPhone since the 4, and docks can be made to fit Android or other devices. The dock is easily removed (with no tools required!) and can be replaced for future upgrade.
