Dawkes https://www.dawkes.co.uk/spare-parts/trumpet (with whom you already have experience)

Thomann https://www.thomann.de/gb/replacement_parts_for_brass_wind_instruments.html

East Coast Instruments https://www.eastcoastinstruments.com/shop/index.php?route=product/search&search=trumpet valve springs (with whom I have no experience)

@barliman2001 I hope all goes well for you.

A commission I am working on, it may be done. The paint isn’t even quite dry yet, and acrylics dry pretty fast!

I can almost see the dog panting.

@administrator No humor allowed!! You've derailed this thread!! Shame on you!!

Random? Possibly. Meaningless? No.

@barliman2002 I notice you're posting again. Can we presume your surgery was successful?
