yup. If you mean the water key, yes.
Marching Trombone> It looks like a large trumpet. It allows for easier marching , not having to use the slide.
The three main parts of the trombone are the bell, the slide, and, of course, the mouthpiece. The bell is where the actual sound comes out. The slide is two pieces stacked over each other. One part slides, changing the note the trombone is playing (think of it like a slide whistle). The third, and final, part is the slide. this is the part that you blow your air into the make the trombone make a sound. You just buzz your lips, and Presto!- you're playing the trombone.
I would like to know how I can be sure that the bell and the slide are the original combination. I bought an old Bach 12. Engraved in the slide is 3623 Model 12. The Bell says New York 67. The colour of the Bell and the outer slide differs a bit (the slide has a red nuance). I am very happy with this instrument, but I would like to know about this. :-)
Your trumpet valve sticks because it is to dry if you want to fix it buy some valve oil undo the valves and put some along the metal piece.
Any trumpet call used in the military was originally for bugle, which had no valves. As such, any military bugle call can be played on trumpet without changing valve fingerings.
The different components of a Trumpet are the bell,the mouthpiece,first valve slide, second valve slide,third valve slide,the three valves,and the tunning slide.
Serial number
The Trumpet consists of Eight parts The Bell The Finger Hook The Valve Casing The Piston The Lead Pipe The Tuning Slide The Valve Slides And The Mouthpiece
there are 3 valves, and 4 slides (one for each valve and a tuning slide)
on the main tunning slide and third valve slide there should be a spit valve, its used to empty your spit from the instrument. some trumpets have more then the two common spit valves.

If you have a bent valve slide, or valve, or valve casing, they usually wont move. Valve's and valve casings would prevent the valves from moving, while bent valve slides wont easily pull out. If you suspect a bent valve, valve casing, or slide, try cleaning and oiling it first, valves and slides can become stuck with the lack of valve oil or slide grease.

Clifford Brown played on a Blessing Artist model. You can see this trumpet on the cover of his Clifford with strings album. This trumpet is distinctive mainly because the third valve slide is on the bottom as opposed to being on top of the third valve slide that you see on conventional trumpets.

There are two little pieces that stock out from the side of the valve. Inside the valve casing (where the valve is put in) the are two grooves line the little pieces up with the grooves, slide it in, twist the cap on and you're ready to play.
