 RE: Tight Bell!

Good advice, Fred - I had a wood vs wood too-tight fit on my old Selmer-Paris lower joint tenon - bell socket interface, prob due to expansion of the very bottom wood of the tenon and/or bell contraction. Asking my repairman-friend, he said to sandpaper lightly [with periodic trials] which I did and it now fits well and snugly. Be careful! ; also be very careful in "rocking" any and all joints, a broken-off tenon and/or a cracked socket could need costly repair , if not fatal to the cl's value. Don
