I picked up this B&H 1-10 kinda on a whim, just because it looked like a challenge to get working. I repadded it, and actually it has a really nice tone to it. Quite a bit warmer than my Buescher Aristocrat, and the key work is really nice. It took a little getting used to(the keys are a bit crowded compared to the Buescher), and I am still working out a couple bugs. But I am really digging the UK horn.
I have a wooden 2-20 coming also, with two wooden bells. That should be quite a bit more of a challenge, but at least I'll have a B&H bell on the 1-10. I'm also looking forward to using the techniques I've read here from the experts in terms of crack repair.
All in all not a bad couple of projects, and I happen to get a barrel in a lot that fits the 1-10 nicely and has matching rings.
