| Well, I guess I have discovered the folly of leaving horns out of cases in a humid room for so many years.
I was twisting the mouthpiece (which was stuck) out, when I guess I twisted with a bit too much zest.
The leadpipe popped right out. The damned mouthpiece is still stuck, too!
Blows my mind, the leadpipe and bracings are still pristine, but what the hell was holding it together? Glue!?
Since its still Cumberland University's, I guess I'm going to have to go get the leadpipe put back in, which sucks ass, because if Dr. F decides to let me buy it, the first thing I'm taking off is the leadpipe!!!
Oh well, I'm about to email him about what happened, and see what his idea on it is.
