Hey Friends,
I received a request from a friend over on the tuba/euphonium facebook page to blast this message on over to here... So here it goes.
James Morgan- "Hi everyone, could use some help please. I have a Mercedes (by Vincent Bach) upright baritone horn, serial #02162, missing a 2nd valve. otherwise a sound horn although the finish is gone. Are these ever available as spare parts or salvage from other horns? Thanks for any information at all!"
If anyone has any leads or can be more helpful than I... You are fantastic and keep being rad.
I don't know of any written information about how any of the Mercedes model instruments cross over to standard Bach instruments. I've never had much luck with repair parts for Mercedes instruments... especially things like rotor linkages and slide locks on trombones.
