Anyone else have lacquer over spray on their key pearls..It's not a problem for me ...just seems a bit lazy for such an expensive horn.

Not unusual - Top SMLs from '50s often have lacquer over pearls too.

I may be naive but why is lacquered covered pearls considered "lazy"? Is it a bad thing? Never had a problem with my 36.

Super 20's and Buffets had the overspray too. And probably others...

Not a problem.The horn gets played a lot..didn't notice it until it started wearing off in spots.
I'm very happy with the horn.
