WTB Donor Valve to replace Bach K Valve.

Hi all.

I've bought a stunning 36b with heavy gold bell, light weight slide. It plays so beautifully, BUT, the K valve is going to be impossible to live with as it digs into the neck.

I'm after a donor valve, or valve section to replace the K valve with.

Any valve sections or Valves  out there?

Many thanks.

I have a Besson valve which is for a M/L trombone. It is new, unused, never fitted and comes complete with all the linkage mechanism and saddle and spring.

Let me know if you are interested.

Cheers

Thanks for the replies guys.

Not interested in a GF, as I have one and as anyone should know one is enough!

I might be interested in your K valve when you replace it.

I probably should point out that the K valve may be the reason you like the horn so much.

The K valve was Bach's answer to the Thayer.  It has very little bending to the air stream.  It's too bad that the reason you don't like it is the same reason most of us didn't like it.

You may find that when you put a regular rotor on it, it won't be quite as nice.  But I like my Bach 36 with a standard wrap and a rotor.
