      Has anyone every tried the Sterling Silver Bells?
      I picked up a B1 Sterling silver bell in a trade recently and wondering what kind of sound profile I might expect?

        I’ve been playing my P5-4 for 20 yrs, the only horn I have kept for that long. I also play a 1971 C5L I picked up in a trade from a friend a few years ago. I used to play Schilke Bbs, but that was about 12 yrs and 3 horns ago....

        Daily players: Adams A1, A4LT, F2 flugel , CN1 cornet.

          @flugelgirl does your P5-4 have a sterling silver bell? I'd be curious to know. I have never played a Schilke with such a bell, but from what I understand, sterling silver almost always produces a more clarion, bright sound. So, definitely not something for a "nightclub, intimate" sound.

            @administrator nope, just the standard model. I still like it more than any other picc I’ve played, though! And nothing about a picc is ever of the smoky night club sound 😉
