-----------------------------

There can be some variation in the lengths of the sections, depending on =
the design of the linkages. The overall length will be approximately the =
same, though I think that can vary slightly based on bore size and bell =
attributes (e.g. if there is a bell vent hole). Also, if one is a full =
Boehm where there is a tone hole through the tenon then the sections =
will be different lengths from the corresponding sections of a normal =
horn.
