My Yamaha 8310ZII came with fancy, semi-precious stone finger buttons. I never learned where they came from or if others ones are available anywhere.

Can anyone point me to a vendor of these specialty buttons?

I make custom buttons and inlays. I have made a bunch for the 8310zII.
If they are synthetic opals it is highly likely that they came from me.

I almost wish I was a "pimp my horn" guy. I'm barely a "polish my horn each decade" guy.

I was that way for a long time. Decades. But for whatever reason, my current stable are just ... I want them to be as ideal as I can. Still trying to find finger buttons, but Marcinkiewicz threads were not something that matches anyone else, and they don't make anything but mouthpieces any more.

Hello, good job!

Is it possible to have finger buttons with blue inlays for 8310Z first generation?

Thank you.

Best,
Patrizio

Yes, I've got plenty of blue options.

You can get in touch via the links in my signature.

Are the Divitt finger buttons still available through Mouthpiece Express? I had some beautiful ones ordered and made through them a while back and absolutely love them. If it was you, thank you!

I've never sold my buttons through Mouthpiece Express. I only sell them directly to customers.

Thanks for clarifying. I just wanted to say that your Divitt buttons are stunningly beautiful. I think it's so cool that you can make a horn "your own"and let your personality shine through.
