Hey all,
I am looking for a valve guard for my flugelhorn. It is a Yamaha copy in construction. I really like the Protec 7-point guard on my trumpet, and I'm looking for something similar.
I saw another post on TH with a post from Zachary Music, but those guards are supposedly made for Guarnerius flugels, and I'm not sure how they differ structurally. https://www.zacharymusic.com/Zachary_Music/GuardZFH900.htm
I saw another post preaching Leather Specialties for Yamaha flugels specifically, but it's my understanding they are back ordered for an unforeseen amount of time, and the company is impossible to get a hold of. https://brassrepairs.net/store/ols/products/leather-specialties-yamaha-flugelhorn-valve-guard-basic-and-deluxe/v/LTH-SPC-YMH-FLG-DLX-BLC
Does anyone have recommendations for (preferably leather) flugelhorn valve guards?
