Just one caviat, the cost of removing the valve cluster depends on the sousaphone. I have an old Keefer with a very unusual wrap that I was told would making removing the valves for a valve job difficult and therefore expensive. I decided to make do with heavy valve oil for the few times that I use this horn.
