A California-made pre-1980 F. E. Olds valve section (arguably the very best small bore American-made valve trombone ever made) should fit a run-of-the-mill pre-1980 Reynolds student bell section without alteration...but good luck finding a "spare" Olds valve section.
I have a Reynolds Vbone... damn near impossible to replace. Absolutely amazing.

When completed

- It will have an F-attachment.
- It will be in the shape of a trombone (important, if being hired to go play "trombone" at some church orchestra gig).
- It will have at LEAST a 5-position and hopefully a 7-position playing slide (that can be unlocked and used when a slide is absolutely called for).

I've worked out how to do it in my head...but it gave me a headache.

:roll:
That sounds like a Superbone with a F-attachment... :shock:
Actually, it could probably outplay any cimbasso made.
