Mr. Osmun,
After I provided the serial number of my horn I was told by it's
maker, Dan Rauch, that the ring was made by Riedl of Germany. That's
all know! I'm awaiting a response from Mr. Rauch on possible contact
information for Riedl, but in the meantime I thought I'd try the
list.
You might try to contact Stuart de Haro. He apprenticed with Rauch, but
I don't know if that means he has any more knowledge of the maker of
this ring than anyone else. http://www.deharohorns.com/
He might be able to copy the ring, though I imagine it would require
taking it off the bell. It might be easier just to replace it with a
more "standard" ring if you are interested in experimenting with bell
flares.
