Larry,

I would really check with Don Butterfield on this matter. He has spent
many hours studying this fabrication to the horn. Besides being able to
see the conductor with both eyes, I am sure that it has a "sound" signifigance.
I know that he had not only the leadpipes raised on his personal horns, but
also on his student's horns and the horns at the colleges where he taught.

I don't know of any reasons personally, but through the auspices of Don Butterfield,
and all that I have learned from him, I would say there is some logic behind the
question.

I hope I was of some help,

Jesse DeLucca
