How to Replace the Cork in a Trombone Water Key |
|
Introduction |
A leaky water key can make playing difficult and a horn sound strange. Instrument repair professionals can fix leaky water keys, but often times all the water key needs is a new cork: an easy fix you can do at home. Water key corks are inexpensive and available at most music stores and online, but a wine cork cut to the right size will work in a pinch as well. |
