Re: Going raw

Raw brass rules, raw brass rules. I have an Ambassador that I stripped and had to repair one of the valve to bell braces. It's cool. Delaquering is a mess and a bit of a pain. It's worth it but takes about three hours from start to play. Whatever you strip with, please make sure you have adequate ventilation.
