Reynolds B-sousa missing tuning slide

Post by tubamike »

:?: I bought a 1958 Reynolds B-Sousa in satin silver finish with gold wash bell. It's a great playing horn !
Unfortunately it's missing the first (large) tuning slide with the water outlet. Someone replaced it by a piece from a different make. Do you know where i could get a original part ? :?:

I don't know if anything is available new but I might have one on some junk valvesets. Send me some dimensions... the OD of the inner slide tube... the length of the slide tubes... and the dimension center to center of the slide tubes.
