Hi Alan,

I got the horn today and it is great! It's very responsive and projects wonderfully, and has a great centered sound.

I love playing it! It plays very differently from my Holton (but much better!) Thank you for the tips on taking care of the valves. I need to buy some Blue Juice this week, but I'm not familiar with 3 in 1 oil. I'll try to find it. Thank you so much for all of the help with getting the horn. It was a very educational and helpful process!
