I asked my brother in law, and he said the following:
It's a high frequency horn. Usually used in pa's and by
stereo/audiophiles. The guitar doesn't really need one because
guitar speakers do a good job reproducing the high frequencies and
tone of a guitar.
The only guitar player I know who used a horn in his amp set-up was
John Cipolina from quicksilver messenger service. Surprisingly, bass
guitar amps use horns more than guitars because the bass speakers
don't reproduce treble overtones to well. Guitar amps have no
trouble producing ear splitting treble tones!

just what the hell is that horn thingy?
