You can set three options as you want when you order the AIOLIA or ARTEMIS.
AIOLIA and ARTEMIS commonly adopts the 133mm Medium Large bell (ML bell), but two interchangeable bells, 143mm Large bell (L bell) and 123mm Medium bell (M bell), are equipped when you set this IBS option.
Being able to select a bell for a same instrument, the music representation greatly grows wider. (*This option can not be selected for Piccolo)
[Sound character of each bell size]
M bell : Speedy and swinging tone and color
ML bell : Powerful and flexible, all-round tone and color
L bell : Far-carrying, rich and dignified tone and color
The “Tempered bell” is the highest-class bell and made by a specialized and professional craftsman.
Comparing to the normal bell, the tone has more appropriately balanced harmonic overtones, so the sound is richer and more dignified. The blow is excellently smooth and is immediately converted from the blow to sounds. This bell must be more than appropriate to the name of the Ultimate.
*Two tempered bells (L and M bells) are equipped for this option.
*This option can not be selected for Piccolo.
Gold plated is available upon request. Gold plate makes the sound even richer.
