FOUND B&H Sov 921 cornet pinky ring and 1st valve trigger

Post by iiipopes »

OK, not really tuba related, although I do own a B&H 3-valve comp euph with the original mid-sized receiver. I need a pinky ring and a 1st valve trigger for a B&H late-70's 921 Sovereign large bore cornet.

The cornet is missing its pinky ring, and the trigger was designed for, believe it or not, right hand, not left hand triggering.

The pinky ring is singular to late 70's 920, 921, 922, being a full circle with a double brace.

Years later, the 928 next generation cornets fixed the trigger issue by making it straight up and down, instead of the offset, so it could be managed with the left hand. If anybody knows if a 928 trigger would fit a 921, I'd be open to a 928 first valve trigger as a replacement instead of modifying a 921 trigger.

The cornet I am getting is lacquer, but I won't be choosy about lacquer or plate.

Thanks.

Nevermind. I finally got my 921 Sovereign cornet today. My left thumb is long enough that the offset trigger is not an issue.
