Until you get your new reciever installed, use what the pros use, duct tape.

"Home Depot Serenade"
Duct tape my heart.
Shop vac my tears.
Glue, screw and sand -
this lonely old man and,
buy me a beer.

I put a small-shank receiver in the mail to you this morning. Watch for it. The 'horn-end' of it should fit OVER your existing leadpipe but if it doesn't, I suggest taking it to a repairman.

Great! Thanks!

I just soldered on the receiver. I still don't have my Eb mouthpiece back yet, so I can't quite play it yet.

A little better?

Looks like somebody tried to fit a "standard" mouthpiece into the receiver, and when it wouldn't go in "far enough" gave it the old heave-to!

Does anyone have one of these braces they would be willing to sell or know who would have one?

If you're refering to the socket flange brace, I believe so - I'll get back to you... Probably $5 if I have one.
