    Doug,

    Thank you so much for your fabulous review. I came into this experiment not really knowing what to expect (although I am confident with our doublers I don't play euphonium at any real...

    Great suggestion about the guides so we just ordered a bunch from the factory! We aligned the valves before shipping so perhaps the thinness of the pads is because of the materials we are using. ...
