Re: 3rd valve stuck!!!!

IT happens. I tend to agree with the finger position being off, as I have experienced it myself at inopportune moments...sometimes just a touch of excitement is all that is necessary to "change" something a tad...and...poof...trouble.

While we all like new horns....unless the Conn is beat to death...its probably NOT the horn. Being a Conn lover...many of those "old" horns are really GREAT. What model are you playing on and how old is it?
