Hello-

I am finding the need to have a smaller horn for some things I am getting called on (Beethoven, Mozart, etc...). Might anyone have a 9" Bass Bell they are trying to sell?

I wouldn't expect a 9" Shires bass bell to play significantly smaller than the equivalent 9½" version. If you're playing a BII, moving to a BI might accomplish what you want.

I'm not even sure if they've made any 9" bells. If they exist there might only be a handful...

Might be cheaper and easier to find a TR183 or Olds PG24 bell and adapt it to fit your Shires.
