WTB King 3B+ with F attachment (England)

I have a straight King 3B+ trombone that I like but I now need the same horn with a trigger. Can anybody help? I guess shipping and VAT would rule out an import from outside Europe, as I took a sizeable VAT hit when I imported a, rather lovely, Olds Recording from the USA last time.

Do these horns even exist, or should I go for Benge 175F?

You could also look for a King 607, 608, or 609. Bell sections are pretty much identical and you could use the slide as a spare.

They do exist but finding one used quickly in UK might be challenging.

Plan B is to add a 4B valve section What do you think? Anyone got a 4B valve section going spare?

I have a fantastic early 3B+F in California...

I also think the 4B valve section idea is good. As is the 607/608 idea...
