    Reveille Bells are a rare forked tubular bell instrument that J.C. Deagan built in the 1920s. They were one of Deagan's most expensive instruments, so expensive that they were never made available to individual percussionists but rather sold to churches and theaters for their organs.  The l
    ongest bell (C4) is about 20" long and 2.75" wide.
