Is your horn too short or are you too tall and don't want to play off the knee? This is the perfect answer to your woes. ;)
These are gorgeous wooden bell risers. One lifts the horn approximately 2.5 inches the other lifts it about 3.5 inches.
These slip (they're a tight fit) over the rim of your flare and keep the horn in the correct position so you don't wreck your embouchure.
NOTE: The cork side (inside the channel) goes towards the player when slipping it on to the bell rim.
Colors vary: Brown, Black, Ivory, Red-ish

Bell Riser finish needs work
The function of this bell riser is exactly what I was looking! I can't support the weight of my bell due to an injury in my right shoulder. But, the quality of the wood and finish is lacking considering it's $75. The wood is light in weight, so I'm worried about the longevity if it accidentally falls to the floor. Also, I'd like some transparency of the material in the description. Lastly, the finish is rough. I got the black bell riser, and the paint or varnish is uneven with scratches and streaks. I also see specks of red coming through, so I'm assuming it's the red finish painted black. It could be a quality control or packaging issue. Regardless, I'd take less color options with the result being a better finished product, or make it less expensive.

Bell riser
I love this item! It has improved my sound and made playing more comfortable. The wood is lovely, and it's easy to put on, adjust, and remove.

Good device
Simple device. Allows motion to cue, express. Sound is open and not hindered by device. I'm 6'0" and the large size worked great for me. They should make in larger sizes.
