As I've said in the past I just have a hard time believing this. The bell is made into one piece (yes, it starts out as two pieces but is then brazed into one piece), spun, bent, and is THEN cut. Why would the flare and bell tail be different alloys? The only possible explanation would be if they 'cobbled' a horn together from different parts. Also a bit hard to believe.

Hi, Last year there were many posts about the Conn rose Brass horns having only the bell flair red brass and the throat being regular brass. I just heard from a repair guy saying this isn't the case at all. Sooooo, what's the truth here?? Was it Conn or Holton?
