Before photos: H.N. White King Sousaphone

This one is a doozy, but I think it will come together well in the end. It has been abused and poorly repaired in the past with gobs and smears of old solder left on the instrument. Much of the silver plating has been worn away, but after some TLC and replacing wrong parts with actual King parts, this horn should look and play like a million bucks. 

I will tear it down and begin cleaning it today. Let's go!
