It’s definitely not a 101/186 stencil, it’s way too small. The bell is approximately 14 inches, 36 inches tall. It plays really well for being a small horn, but I haven’t been able to locate what model it is. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.
The valves are clangy for sure, I think I might take it to the shop for some service, but we’ll see. The fourth valve slide is very big and distinctive so maybe that will provide a clue?
