On the website below, I see the description:
"...24kt plated heavy finger buttons for quick valve action...."
This really shook me--have the trumpet players really stumbled onto something? Heavy buttons make for quick valves? Would my tuba's valves be faster if I installed lead, or better yet--depleted uranium--valve buttons? Anyone know where I can buy a set?
