Bach 1106 (Yamaha?) marching baritone valve caps

Post by arpthark »

I need a single silver valve cap for a Bach 1106 (made in Japan -- I'm guessing Yamaha but unsure of Yamaha equivalent model number). These are the valve caps with a flat top and raised nipple as opposed to the ones with a "sunken ring," e.g. NOT this one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/254615337579?m ... media=COPY

This baritone also came with three different finger buttons. Unsure of what is stock.

Any idea what part numbers I could research or where to find anything?

Thanks!

Your Yamaha dealer will need to order from Yamaha:

G2141022 - lacquer
G2241022 - silver plated

probably, the Bach stencil buttons were possibly cosmetically different, but here are the Yamaha ones:

G2141011 - lacquer
G2241011 - silver plated

Thanks. The music shop I teach at is a Yamaha dealer. Let's see if they can pull the trigger on this one for me.

Appreciate the info!

I hope you’re teaching those innocent young people something other than how to play the tuba.

Funnily enough, I am not teaching any tuba right now -- my little lesson studio currently consists of a cadre of goofy middle school (and one HS freshman) trombone player. I love 'em!
