“Dragon Voices: The Giant Celtic Horns of Ancient Europe” by John Kenny

Although he states that it was more for ritual than it was a war horn, but for the Celts war was very much ingrained in their culture that they might view battle as a ritual, or their rituals were very much glorifying battle.

It was read to them in the grounds of a church and asked them to imagine a child looking at a gravemarker that had been carved by their granddad. With my hand upon stone I reach in and hold onto warmth in the heart of distant, ageless cold.

Go to Google Patents and type in Folded Horn Acoustic Guitar. This is USPTO Patent #10,777,172, and has two five foot long (exponential) folded horns inside an acoustic guitar. This provides more low end, and much greater volume, but the natural frequency range on the soundboard remains. The sound is captured by a microphone, amp, and two speakers inside the guitar. Compression chambers tuned to 89 Hz feed the horns. Similar to having two small Klipsch or other speaker horns inside the guitar, battery powered. Enclosed speakers and divided guitar chamber prevents feedback. A pickup can be blended with this also. This new patent is in the prototype build stage. All tonewood, no plastic or carbon fiber.
