The Difference Between a King 1250 and 2350?

[toobagrowl]

What bloke said plus the fact that the earlier H.N. White King 1250 had the 'seamless' bell (yes, I know there is 'seam', but it's smooth and there is no outside soldered-on band), whereas the later 2350s had the 'band' soldered around the bell...

My h.s. band had three 2350s and two H.N. White souzys - one was the "Giant" model with the larger bore and tall pistons and the other was the 1250. All silverplated.
I think the 2350s had a *slightly* more 'hollow' sound in comparison to the 1250.
The "Giant" was in it's own league with it's very deep, large sound. But all played and sounded great

On the 1930's 1250's that we have the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and the main tuning slide can all be pulled with the left hand. I don't believe that is true of the 2350.
