Anyone have one of the detachable 2341(etc) straight bells they can measure for me? I am interested in BOTH 19" and 22" versions.

EDIT: I am also interested in measurements from a Martin Mammoth detachable bell.

I am looking for:

--Bell diameter
--Diameter of the tenon
--Height of the bell. If you put your bell on a table bell-down... and measure straight up to the tenon... that is what I mean.

Thanks in advance! :smilie7:

King 2341:
Diameter, Bell 19 1/8"
Diameter, Tenon 6 1/4"
Height 13 5/8"

Are you making a separate bag for just a bell?
You can borrow mine for a couple days if you'd like.

Disclaimer: This bell has seen its fair share of bumps and bruises over its life and the tenon has definitely been removed and resoldered before.

Beautiful. Thanks so much, Luke!
Borrowing your bell for a few days would be really helpful. I will PM you to coordinate. :cheers:

My Mammoth bell measures:

Bell diameter: 24"
Tenon diameter: 7 3/4" to 7 7/8" (it's a bit out of round)
Height: 17 1/2" (to the top of the tenon)

Hope this helps!
