Yamaha euph springs in Miraphone 1281?

Post by Bob Kolada »

Any issues here? I played a lot of low register funk stuff last summer and the pinkie was a-hurting. Our 1281 F has nice, smooth valves but the springs are killing me for low concert band stuff.

Get the Willson euph springs. That's what I settled on when I had a 1281....still miss that horn, but its replacement is 2nd to none.
