I forgot to comment on this. This is probably the best advice in maintenence - and something I'll definately bring into my class. I brush my teeth before every time I play the horn, and I clean my horn regularly.
Another great point... thanks! -William In a message dated 9/8/2004 9:14:53 PM Pacific Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: But most of all, invest time in preventive maintenance. Clean your mouth before playing, empty your horn after playing, and oil before you put it away. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
