YORK-aholic,
A quick look revealed a much older sousaphone bell priced at $250. I'll offer the Martin Mammoth
bell and stack for $300 to you and you paying the shipping and packaging costs to your site. If interested
I can take some pics today.

Re: WTB: Martin Recording bell
I have the same problem. Need to sell some of this heavy metal.YORK-aholic wrote:Yeah, I may have accidentally bought that one. I have a complete Mammoth valve section sitting here. If the pistons fit, I'm in business, if they don't, a little bit of soldering and I'm in business...Gus_Pratt wrote:If you still need a bell your Martin, this here has shown up on eBay. It would also give you extra parts for your tuba.

I have got to stop buying these things, or else start selling some of them. Otherwise, my place is going to look like Lost's must: tuba store room with a bit of living space squeezed in among them!

Re: WTB: Martin Recording bell
Here's a mammoth sousaphone bell.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/283030976767
I vaguely remember the comment that at least their tennons matched. And looking at both a recording bell and a sousa bell, they seemed the same depth front to back. Sousa bell just spread wider.
If ya happen to try it out, let us curious types know how it works...
