Welcome and Congrats - you've really put a lot of effort and discipline into coming back on the horn. Not easy to do! Enjoy that flugel - I have the same one - with the Bobby Shew mpc really gets a nice sound. Make sure you use a lightweight oil on the valves - or they get sticky (so I've noticed) and the light oil makes all the difference. Also fond of Getzen's - still have my old Severinsen model after 40+ plus years!

Keep makin music down under!

Regards
