Hello Paul,
I was once told that putting a copper tail piece after the
silencer/baffle would give a melodious sound (sort of brass band??)Â But
never tried it
I understand that mild steel, not stainless, l gave a nicer sound.  Â
Stainless as a better sound was a stainless steel rig manufacturer
advertisement !!!!
Cheers
Barrie
