gouges inside my valve casing and gouges/niks on my valves

retjazz · 05-26-2007, 05:25 PM

Hi I have recentley bought a trumpet and found out that the one valve casing has a couple niks or gouges in it.

Also I found small niks/gouges on the 2nd valve and 2 near the first port hole on the 3rd valve.

Would this not cause big problems with air leakage as well as many other problems to say the least.

I would like some commemnts/advise as to what to do.

Thanks!

Nicks on the OUTSIDE of the casing should cause no grief. If they are on the INSIDE, they can cause the valve to hang and a professional technician should take a look.
