[Hornlist] Trumpet
All. Being extremely busy this past year (very long story) I'm cross posting instead of finding time to surf the IN. Should there be a website where I can research F E Olds trumpet s/ns I'd be much obliged for the info. Please. No Political Correctness. I haven't the time to spar. Take care. GN NAPUDA ASSOC.

[Hornlist] Valve Oil
I've been satisfied with a 'do it myself' blend of sewing machine oil and Ultra-Pure Unscented Lamp Oil (pure kerosene). I blend them together to get a mix that works well depending on the seasonal temperature. I use this on the bearing ends under the valve caps, and in the gap under the swing-arm for the other bearing ends. I mix the oil in a small bottle that has an eye-dropper lid.

[Hornlist] Presperation
Hello everyone, I was wondering how you can tell if your presperation is really acidic. My hands sweat alot when I'm playing my horn, and by the time I'm done practicing, the horn goes from nice clean and shiny to ugly grime over it, particularly the hand guard area and the inside of the bell. I wipe it down with a t shirt during playing, but completly wipe down everything with laquer cloth once a week. Im playinng on a Yamaha 668NDII, and I'm assuming its laquered Some spots seem to have a less shiny area and like some dull little specks (i got the horn like that new, could the laquer have been applied thinly to that area? Or just something that makes the metal not so mirror looking?) Best, Mike ___ post: [EMAIL PROTECTED] set your options at http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
