| Did Martin make an upturned bell version of the Committee? If so, Was it available only for stars or the Diz big band? Or could anyone order one? |

I believe they did officially make one as they created cases for them. I would imagine that they would have been a special order though.
You can still pick these up off Auction sites from time to time - but expect to pay top dollar for them.
If you have a Committee you could also have someone like Josh Landress convert it to a Diz style horn. He has done this several times and has an original example of the upturned bell on display in his shop that he can use as a reference.
