Re: Weber bell

I've played many of them and had many bells reamed by David. They generally help with the middle E-F#, and give focus to the tone. In a way I can not explain, they also effect the resistance of the oboe tremendously. Sometimes a different bell can make you feel like you're blowing through a straw, while other times it can make you feel like you're blowing through a 3" copper pipe.

My best suggestion would be to just call them and ask to try three on trial.
