The VMI 4098 is rotary valves...there is no PT version

The VMI 5198 is piston valves...the PT version is the PT 7.

THe VMI has a slightly larger bell and the 1st valve slide assembly is slightly different. Also, the VMI's are usually gold lacquered. I have played some great VMI's and some good PT7s...mostly luck of the draw. The big difference is the price...$8000 for the VMI...NOT $8000 for the PT! :)

Take care!
