I get frequent calls to replace the old tube and rod links on European horns. Personally... I think these are the most robust links that can be had. There was a loose pin in the #4 paddle arm on the Rudy I recently started playing. This permanent fix took all of thirty minutes from start to finish.

Re: Fix Those Tube And Rod Links!
Easy for you to say... just when I think I understand how it all goes together, I'm reminded that there are a bazillion components and repairs that I would just never think to attempt on my own. Guys like me keep guys like you in business. Nice work!
