  • 5/16/23- starting a new multi part series on a vintage Slingerland 1 piston bugle. This has been in penetrating oil for the better part of 5-7 months. Still very difficult to get things to move. But all is well and now on to everything else.

    This is the style of piston that is in my Czech trumpet. What is the style called? I would like more information on how it goes together because there are both cork and felt in mine and I think it misaligns the valves as this is not the original configuration.
