WTB: King finger button

Post by Minkrott »

Looking for old style King 1240 /2340 finger button with mother of pearl inlay. Current buttons are lacquer and MOP has gold tint.

I also read that the old style can be replaced with new style caps and buttons. I am very interested in this option. What would a set of four with felts cost and who can I order them from?

I replaced my old-style 2341 (removable bell) finger buttons with these:

They're similar to the new style in that they are not MOP and they are slightly concave. Feels much better to me. Also, you don't need to replace the valve caps with these. They're plug and play for the old-style 234X and 124X.

If you still just want one old-style finger button, I've got 4 I'm not using. Shoot me a private message.

I ordered new style caps and buttons from Dillons. Matt was very helpful.
