Hey,
I've seen many posts with refernces to the Schilke horn numbering system. I used to play Bach so, I'm familiar with a lot of their models. What the deifferences between the various Schilke Bb's, specicifically the B1's, B2's... is it a weight thing? Bore size thing? and how long has this nomenclature for these horns been around?
In other words, what do the numbers infer? The Bach horn numbering system has always seemed a bit arbitrary, to me, unless it's like the mouthpieces where lower is more symphonic and higher seems to be lead horn stuff.
Patrick? Chuck?
