Benge 290 parts

Post by Elow »

Anyone know where i can find some benge 290 parts, i brought it to my work and the repair guys said its a lost cause but i assume theres some way to find some parts besides buying a whole horn. I need the whole Gb lever due to my little sister rummaging through my room after i disassembled both rotors to be cleaned and i went to practice and i come back with my horn on the floor and the whole Gb lever unsoldered and missing. Shes too young or too stubborn to tell me where it is so i have declared it gone.

I imagine it fell off the stand and took a heavy hit and fell off not really unsoldered.

Email chuck ward. He worked with UMI/king to design these horns. When I played one, he had pipes and repair parts.

I’d think a good tech should be able to fab up a lever without too
Much trouble for you.
