Lee did a great job on it! I've never been a "silver man" but I just have to admit, that is one beautiful horn!

It's beautiful. A Stofer repair job? He does good work.

I owned silver plated horns for many years. To keep them from tarnishing, but it in the case or bag when not playing it and include an anti-tarnish strip when you do. When it does get tarnished, use Tarn-X in a spray bottle. Take it outside, spritz it down, rinse it off, wipe it dry. Otherwise you'll be spending hours every six months cleaning up the silver.

Just my quarter's worth.
