Douglas Pipher tells us about the range of instruments produced from 1928 to 1931, known as the "New Large Bore".
In 1928, Henri SELMER Paris decided to stop putting a model stamp on their instruments. So the next range of instruments, from 1928 to 1931, have become known as the Large Bore. This is because the bore at the top of the body, where the neck is attached, changed for the Altos, and the Altos only. It changed from roughly 25.1 millimeters to about 25.5 millimeters. That may not seem like very much, point four of one millimetre, but it is nearly a two percent increase in the bore and that has a dramatic effect on the sound.
