Plastic tuba valve woes
Plastic tuba valve woes
Does anyone know of a source of replacement rotors for the PlayLite/Tiger/Coolwind/ZO/Rheinsound/Playtech/&c. plastic tubas, preferably in UK or Ireland? My 3rd and 4th rotors were not properly anodised and corrode so badly that they can seize within 24hrs; if I don’t play for a more than a week I may need to drift them out with a hammer and punch. In every other respect I’m actually well pleased with the instrument but I’ve just had to take a hammer to it AGAIN, and the novelty has worn off! The only UK dealer I know of is Gear4Music (PlayLite) who were polite but (predictably) no help.
