I had the Callet third slide conversion done to my horn.
My LB Bach is a 72* bell with a regular weight body.
It played great before, this is the horn I used on WSS, it is now lighter by one brace. It feels like the pre-war Besson I traded away many moons ago. It even looks like the Besson, the third valve slide is reversed.
I am very happy with this setup.
