Subj: [kl] Eb on bell
Date: Sat, 13 May 2000 14:36:02 -0400

Several auctions have described a bass clarinet as having "Eb on
the bell". I assume this means that the keywork extends to the bell
with a bridge of some sort. Are all bass clarinets built this way?
And a related question: does a bass clarinet change into some other
standard instrument if you replace the neck with a simple barrel and the
curved bell with an 'ordinary' bell.

Thank you,
Bill
