[Trombone-l] Implants

[john bailey]

You could experiment.  Maybe get one of those hot water moldable sports
mouth guards.  Walmart has cheap ones.   And cut it down so it can be used
over the front tops or bottoms.  Then mold it to fit.  Then see what a
really bad implant would feel like.  Maybe it'll be okay.  John
