WTB: BBb sousaphone valve cluster, 4 valves.
I currently have a King 2350 that I would like to make into a 4-valve instrument. Just wondering is there a 4-valve cluster for BBb sousaphone somewhere out there that might work with the bow and bell of the King? Any leads appreciated!

The most plug-and-play solution would be a King 1251/2351 valve cluster... you'll be looking for a while if you're after one of those. The King MTS/lead pipe arrangement makes fitting different valve sets difficult. A Reynolds valve set might work, since they're very close in bore, if you also transfer the lower neckpipe and MTS of the Reynolds.
