I have a four year old Besson English baritone (bought new in '99) that prematurely wears out the plastic/Nylon valve guides. I've had to replace the 1st & 2nd valve guides twice on this horn which hasn't had that much play time. Are any other late model Besson owners having this problem? I did a search to find Besson valve sticking/guide problems, but not wear issues. Thanks, Rocky.
