What kind of 5th valve options are possible for the King 2280? I know the 2280 tuning is already kind of unique. I've played the 4th valve mainly as an Eb valve, which I think is my preferred tuning.
I've been thinking of a 5th valve. Maybe an academic exercise, maybe a bad idea, maybe just a trombone player thinking with the wrong end again.
Being that the 4th valve on the 2280 gives a lot of options, what 5th valve options are there? Flat step like an F tuba? 4th like a bass bone? Big hand tuning slide? Something else? Better to leave it alone? What do you think?
