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! :shock:

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

Hmmm.... maybe NO bell is the short bell.... the upright bell is the 'intermediate' bell... and the recording bell is the long one. :D

Hey... it's in the key of A, Bb, AND B :!:
