 |
|
Try as I might, I have not been able to find any information at all on the leadpipe or tuning slide material on the X-13.
I've got one on order, so it obviously won't affect whether I get one or not, but for maintenance planning/issues, it's good to know. I've never had any issue with red rot, but my main horns have nickel silver and gold brass leadpipes and slides. I swab them weekly and they're still mirror-smooth inside.
If the X-13 is yellow brass, I may up the amount of swabbing, just to be safe. |

I kind of thought that would be the default. |
