Hey all,

I've got a gig soon and i'm using a friend's horn, and the screw on one of the linkages on the F trigger popped off. I just need to screw it back in, but don't have the tools to do so. What size allen wrench should fit?

it's a Shires (eastman) Bravo Tenor Trombone

Thanks!

Usually Allen wrenches come in a set of various sizes so you should have one that will fit.

I'm glad it worked for you. I don't have a Bravo, but my Shires instruments all use 1.5mm hex head set screws, so I took a guess.
