My bottom valve is too tight :((((
Not sure what you mean by “bottom valve”. If you mean the bottom valve cap is too tight to loosen, wrap some electrical tape around the teeth of a pair of pliers and use the pliers to loosen the cap.
Thank you so much! I thought my mellophone was broken for good
Bro save my life 😂
THXXX
there is an easier way bruh
Thank you so much, we were about to start learning E but my first valve key was loose, this helped ke
Do you know how to fix slow valves? I’ve oiled my first valve in pretty much every spot that moves and it’s still slow to come up
Try putting valve oil down the tuning slide attached to the valve while working the finger paddle. If that doesn’t help, try giving your horn a bath. See my video for that.
@@quickfixtips2030 I’ll try giving it a bath, the valve oil down the slide worked for the other valves but not for this one
You just saved an angry wife and an upset 10 yr old. Thank you.
Glad to help keep the peace. 😊
Who's watching this in 2024? 😂
Thank you man
thank you so much man
I watched this during sectionals lol and it worked
@@zahirzee1 OMG! I love this, and your resourcefulness. Are you at band camp? Or did school start already?
@@quickfixtips2030 no I have my first period as band lol
Thank you so much I was panicking.
Don’t put your trumpet down like that 😭
@@SimplyAubree930 If you’re talking about laying it down on the 2nd valve slide, you are correct. The trumpet shouldn’t be resting on that side as a general rule. However, the surface was padded and I laid it down gently and only temporarily for the video. Thanks for catching that so the point could be discussed.
@@quickfixtips2030 yeah I’m talking about the slide
THXXX I TOUGHT I BROKE MY TRUMPET😫🙏🏼
Ok but hot to make a trigger move
Why not?
@@quickfixtips2030nvm I fixed it with the pliers:)

YOUR VIDEO SAVED MY LIFE I THOUGHT IF WAS OVER FOR ME THANK YOU SO MUCH UR SO INSPIRING I LOVE YOU
THIS GUY SAVED MY LIFE THANK YOU SO MUCH 🤍🤍🤍🤍
Sir thank u so much❤❤❤
Why do the buttons not make a noise when it hits the bottom when pressed down? I can't see any cushioning.
There is a felt ring under the valve button and the valve cap to reduce the sound when pressed down and when it springs back up.
Is that spring made of copper???
Yes, I believe so.
Great video, thanks! I just found an old French Horn on the side of the road (Yamaha YHR321), it's a little dented, dirty and missing the mouth piece. But I've always wanted a French Horn (such a beautiufl instrument!), so I'm going to try to clean it up. This video will help a lot. :D
Wow. The universe works in mysterious ways. Finding a French Horn on the side of the road is a million to one chance, but being found by a person who always wanted a horn? You must live right.
Haven't used my French Horn since school days in 2017, the valves weren't moving at all. The drumstick method worked perfectly, thank you!!
Thank you 🗿
Hey I'm using my brothers trumpet and the button loosened while the stem was inside of the trumpet. Do you have any idea how to get the valve out (excluding the button)?
Your best bet is to unscrew the top and bottom valve case caps and push the valve up with your finger from the bottom. You should then be able to put the valve back together.
Have you run into the issue of a trumpets' button coming loose often with intense playing? Not the stem, just the button. If so, did you have a fix for that?
Try Loctite Threadlocker BLUE 242 on the button threads. Don’t use the Red Loctite. The Blue will keep the button from loosening but you can still take it off if needed. The Red is permanent.
Omg so I was in band class and I accidentally did this and it scared me to death but then this vid saved my life
Exactly what I needed! I didn't have electrical tape but putting a tea towel between the grips and the valves did the trick. Thanks!
Thank you so much😊
YOU JUST SAVED MY LIFE FROM MY MARIACHI TEACHER
Or you could take off the bottom and put ur finger inside and keep your finger inside while you are spinning the valve back on then put the bottom back on to that you don’t mess up your guide
Thank you! I fixed my trumpet and it saved my life
OMG this rlly helpedddd thxxxx for this tutorial
My thing is not going down its just stuck can you help pls
Probably a dent in the valve casing. Best to take it to a trained repair person.
Thanks, i cant believe I never thought of this! I used an unsharpened pencil and a 10 pound weight and it worked
That works too. Good job.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I GOR SCARED AND THOUGHT I BROKE IT 😰😰😰😭😭😭
My son just started playing trumpet last week. I just noticed his button was wobbly tonight. This video saved us. Thank you!
That’s awesome. Tell your son to always turn the valve clockwise or to the right. Turning counter clockwise or to the left just loosens things up and the valve comes apart. This is an exciting time for your son. I wish him a ton of fun and musical memories to come.
Thank you!
thank you so much! I subscribed
You literally saved me when the plastic part came out. Thank you man. :)
This is a huge life saver, thank you
Thank you so much! I accidentally broke valve #1 and didn't know what to do. This video literally saved my life in 15 minutes!
AGREED😂!
What can i do if half of the valve part got stuck in my trumpet?
I would need more specifics to offer advice. Such as, what part of the valve is stuck, where is it stuck. Perhaps it’s time to take it to an instrument repair person.
THANK YOU I WAS ABOUT TO BUY ANOTHER TRUMPET YOUR A LIFE SAVER
OMG TYSM FOR SAVING ME, I WAS HAVING A HEART ATTACK (not actually) I WAS SO SCARED THAT MY TEACHER KNEW THAT I BROKE IT, ONE OF MY FRIENDS WERE LOOKING AT ME WHEN I BROKE THE VALVE ON ACCIDENT BECAUSE IT MADE A POP SOUND YOU SAVED ME DUDE
Didnt work, now my trumpet is broken
I’m sorry that didn’t work for you. Best to take it to a repair shop and see what the problem is. If your valve guide isn’t broken, try the process again. If by “broken” you mean no air goes through, maybe your valve got turned around. If you try to turn the valve till it clicks into place, and it just spins, you likely have a broken valve guide if it’s made of plastic.
Dude, you’re a lifesaver. This worked for my tuba!
the instrumental is too quiet I can still hear your voice
IKR? I hate my voice too. 🤷🏻♂️
My horn's been unused for over three years, and the 2nd valve would NOT budge. Just a few light taps with the drum stick and hammer and we're back in business. Great video; you saved me quite a headache.
Hey Mitchell. Thanks for using my video. I’m really glad you had success.
