I recently acquired a silver plated Reynolds Eb sousaphone (the little double loop style). I have all of the parts except original style screws for the bell. It came with some funky plastic screws and it is useable, but I would like to have some that look and work better.
It came with valve buttons, but they look like old Conn or Besson style and they are brass, not silver plated. If someone has some of these I would pay a reasonable price for them too.
Thanks,
Lew

Thanks, I checked with him and he has the valve buttons, but not the right bell screws. Does anyone have these, or know the correct size?armytuba wrote:Check that famous auction site, and do a User ID search for bandroom1. You will be linked to his eBay Store. This seller carries a huge assortment of spare parts for tubas, sousaphones and other brass. I have done business with several times and highly recommend him.
