Where can one buy replacement valve guides for a Carol Brass trumpet?
Thanks,
Gary. |

Doug Teeter is no longer the Carol Brass distributor. Contact Steve Dillard at The Horn Trader. He's been the new distributor for over a year.

Thank you - I went by the Carol Brass dealer list quoted in my above post. I was not aware that Doug Teeter is no longer the CB distributor. |

Doug is still with CarolBrass. I spoke with him last week. He was deemed too valuable for CarolBrass to let him leave. _________________ "We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams." |

Rich Ita's Brass Workshop sells Carol Brass parts. I ordered valve guides from him a few months ago. He's an east coast guy though. |

This is turning out to be harder than it should be.
I have reached out to two people. One has not responded, the other gave me bad information.
The suggestion was to use a Back plastic valve guide. They look like this:
Unfortunately, the Carol Brass valve guide looks like this:
@BreakFromTheHerd - 3rd try is the charm. Rich Ita says that he can help.
