RE: [Hornlist] Horn Wanted

2009-05-13 Thread Gene Wieland
Hi Wilbert,
I have a 322 4 finger Yamaha with A+ valve in excellent shape. The
horn has a custom screw bell conversion. A custom A+ to f extension hand
switchable slide (replaces Thumb valve A+ slide). I can send you pictures if
need be. I've tried Hoyer, Paxman Alexander, King (which I still own) and
several others and prefer this horn.
 I can send you photo's if you like.

Subject: [Hornlist] Horn Wanted



Hello All.  Please pardon this dual posting.

I am looking for one of the following:  Paxman 10, Paxman 11, Alex 90, or
Alex 97.  All are single Bb horns, and hopefully the Paxman 10 and the Alex
90 will have the F extension slide.

All of my usual sources, such as hornplayer.net and hornsaplenty do not have
exactly what I want.  In fact, Alan at hornsaplenty does not have any Bb
horns at all, in spite of what's listed on their web site.

Other brands might be acceptable.  Let me know what you have.  No Sansone
horns, please!

I have a double horn to trade, or just plain cash, or a combination of both.

Thanks.

Wilbert in SC

RE: [Hornlist] titanium mp coating

2009-05-11 Thread Gene Wieland
Yes, the black titanium mp coating has the maximum "slip" of the coatings
that Dave is offering. Gold has a little more grip. An uncoated stainless
steel rim has the most grip. The difference, when polished is subtle. If you
are looking for a more conventional feel, order the rim unpolished. You can
always have it polished later. In fact, this brings up a great feature of an
unpolished stainless steel mouthpiece. That is, changes can be made to the
plain stainless rim without having to refinish with conventional plating
techniques. Saves time and money. The thickness of the coating is very thin,
so there is virtually no dimensional change. While on the subject of
titanium coatings, the titanium is harder than nails and should last a great
deal longer than silver or gold plating's. The coating is the same as you
see on drill bits to maintain sharpness longer.
  I'm playing Bernstein's "On the Waterfront" this week end. The opening is
very touchy. I'm using a Gene Standly 12 cup 18.50 rim. In addition I have a
GS 10 and a GS 8 each with an 18.50 rim. All cups and rims in black
titanium. If my lip changes during the performance I can instantly make an
mp change to compensate. Dave does a great job of machining with his CNC
lathes and is swamped with orders for here and abroad. 
I find that coating the cup with black titanium coating further improves
lip vibration inside of the cup.
 
The end result of Dave's stainless steel mouthpiece is a durable, remarkably
sweet, projecting sound.

Houser has a few different coatings. One is a little more slippery  
than gold. That is the black one. It is quite amazing and feels like  
there us Vaseline on the rim.  There is one which is gold looking and  
I believe grips more than silver. There I'd also a third coating. Dave  
would be a better source.

You might want to take a look at my JS rim 
(http://osmun.com/OsmunMPC/Osmun_Horn_Rims.html).  It's not on the 
separate rim price list on the store page since I normally only sell it 
as part of the Stagliano replica mouthpiece but it is available as a rim 
only.

RE: [Hornlist] Wanted: Elkhart 8D leadpipe

2008-01-31 Thread Gene Wieland
Hi Ben,

The 8d lead pipe is a factory replacement part bent to fit the Conn
8d. I filled it with lead to custom fit a client's horn. He chose to install
a Lawson pipe instead. I have an offer to buy the pipe. If the sale does not
work out I'll get in touch with you. Mean while I'll send you a picture of
the pipe.

Gene,

Is this pipe a complete leadpipe, or does it still
need to be bent to fit and have all the receiver and
handguards added?

Thanks,

Ben,
  I have an old Elkhardt 8d lead pipe that I've had in my shop for many
years. I originally got it directly from Conn as a replacement part. It is
leaded,which facilitate bending to shape. I would Suspect it is at least
"N": series. I don't know how to price this item,so make an offer.

Pardon the dual-posting, but does anyone have an

would be willing to sell or trade?
