Turning a euphonium bugle into a concert euphonium

Post by DavidBalcerzak »

Hi there, I am bought a euphouim bugle in G three years ago. It has two valves but it plays great. I am looking for somebody to add a 3rd valve to it and flip the bell so I have a euphonium pitched in G. If anybody knows any workers who would like to take up this task please let me know.

Take Bloke's advice and buy a different euph. It'll play better anyway.

Which two-valve G euph do you have? Is it a King or DEG? Got any pics?

There's probably a bunch of Kanstul two-valve G horns out there, too. We were on our third set in the Marine D&B by the time I left (just the second batch of euphs, though).
