Now India is making interchangeable bell horns. I'm pretty sure the MIGHT be a slight pitch difference between the two bells.

Oh... maybe that main tuning slide can be yanked out about 6" to make up the difference on the upright bell!

But where is the "Intermediate" bell they refer to? Maybe that's better in tune...

Hmmm.... maybe NO bell is the short bell.... the upright bell is the 'intermediate' bell... and the recording bell is the long one.
Hey... it's in the key of A, Bb, AND B
