My last post, regarding Selmer's removeable bell and the various methods of its sealing, received no shortage of polarized opinions. It got me thinking about my own methods of sealing this design.
   Well, this is the horn in question, a '69 Mark VI Alto, all finished. Take a look. And, here is an open invitation for all of those with an opinion on the topic to come play test this horn, and with said play test alone, determine the method I used.

  When I overhaul horns with braced bows I always remove the bow, clean it, and reassemble with a silicone sealant. The bow on this '69 Mark VI looked like this when I removed it; super clean. There was no sealant on this bow. I suppose this is a polarizing topic. I fall on the side of, "Seal it with more than just its two little brass screws."
