Euphonium Valveset Wanted

Post by Dan Schultz »

I'm looking for a usable King top-action three-piston valveset. The piston diameter needs to be about .836" and the bore about .567". I think this was probably a very common valveset that was used for years on King/White baritones and euphoniums. Doesn't have to be perfect.

What's A Little Valve Between Friends?

Dan, any chance you could make use of a 4-banger?

Nope. I need a three upright piston valveset. I have a White (King) double bell euph (4th valve on the side) in the shop that has big problems with the valveset. Two of the knuckles are perforated and badly damaged. I could fix it but it would be lots more cost effective to just swap out the three pistons.
