Schleppy is just running a pre-campaign for the next papal election. If he fails there, he may at least be accepted in the Swiss Guard band or maybe get an apprenticeship with a certain Boston brass repair man.

Maybe the truest comment would be:

Holy Cow!

Just considered it is intended for usage with a Texas Longhorn (18' or so) doing clerical services.

That is a slick job! You could spray it with clear spray paint, or if you visit your repair person sometime soon ask them to shoot it with Nikolas 2105. They probably have an aerosol can of it lying around.

The shine from the polish makes the mouthpiece look like porcelain. Very nice.

Beautiful job, Schleppy. One question, though... did all the bad notes go away?
