crowmadic will become famous soon enough
You were accurate when you said "dodgy tuning". When I remove both slides, and replace only the main slide with the waterkey, and play a middle C into a tuning device set at A=440, it reads as a B. If I could hacksaw off a 1/2" of the lead pipe it might tune to a C, thereby making it the Bb/C trumpet I think it wants to be............................HELP!!!
