It's probably true that most people don't think about the springs inside their brass instruments until they have a problem — but they are essential components to their performance well being.
Springs that have total reliability, work silently within the valve group and don't fatigue, should be essential to any brass player — so why not invest in a new set or two for the Spring from Steven Mead?
Increased demands
Steven spoke to 4BR about their importance.
"As the demands on playing have increased so has the need to have the integral parts on your instrument meet those needs. Over the years I've done testing with different designs, tensions, altering the basic shape of springs to get increase performance for myself.
Now we have created springs that encompass options to suit all playing needs — durable, superbly manufactured and of the very highest quality."
Fit perfectly
Steven said: "It was also important to develop some springs with a slightly lighter tensions and ensure that the designs fit perfectly into the valve casing and valve — be it for baritone, euphonium or tuba."
The new Meadspring range therefore comes in are four options:
Baritone/non-compensating euphoniums
Euphonium Light for compensating euphoniums
Original for compensating euphs, EEb/F bass/tuba
CC and BBb basses/tuba
