JoeS,
I also have several older Yamaha euphoniums all equipped with the original plastic guides which I always have been envious of their durability even after many decades of playing. I really think my problem is a Besson material issue; I would gladly give-up a little noise for some longevity! For a Besson pro horn, I think I shouldn't have to retrofit YEP-201 parts, but then again, who knows... I'm hoping maybe the new German Besson factory will soon crank out an upgraded guide.
