Folks,
Leigh and his dedicated crew at First Class Brass took my high school Olds Ambassador and worked their magic on it.
My parents bought this used horn for me in 1968 and I played it through high school (1973). After high school I put the horn away and didn't take it out until last year. It really was in bad shape. The finish was shot, all of the slides were frozen, and there were multiple dents from a trip down a flight of stairs. In addition, I never cleaned it when I put it away 30+ years ago.
Leigh and his folks were up to the challenge as you can see. Leigh did the Eclipse tuning conversion, reversed the 1st and 3rd valve slides, added Amado water keys and finished the horn in scratch silver plate with gold highlights on the slides.
In a word, it looks great. I haven't played it much but it also sounds great so far.
Thanks again Leigh.
