Anyone know if Yamaha Bbs have interchangeable caps? Particularly the 6335S model? (Not the H or HII models, the straight vanilla 6335).
My guess is that they would use the same thread and valve block dimensions for all their trumpets, but I'm not sure. Anyone know? |

Anyone know? | I've owned the 6335 and the caps, threads and finger buttons are interchangeable and the alignment is the same as the H models as well as the newer Xenos and Artist models

Thank you Vince!
Believe it or not, I did a search on here about this and I think I may have read a post of yours from several years ago where you mentioned that you had a 6335 and had put caps and finger buttons from a Xeno on your 6335. Although I wasn't 100% sure if that was referring to the original 6335 or the later H models.
Was that you? If so, I'm curious as to the exact configuration you had your set up with. (If it wasn't you, and I've confused you with a totally different user... whoops... haha) |

I don't recall posting anything but it's possibe. I had a 6335 that I added an extra tuning slide brace to as well as artist model caps and finger buttons. It added just enough weight to really make the horn work (for me anyway). |

Hey Vince,
Yeah I think it was you, as that sounds like what I read. Which artist model did you take the caps etc from? |
