Helen: These are the photos I took of the horn a little while after I got it. 

One of the things I did was try to compare the bows of the Couf to those of my Mark VI and Martin Committee III baris. Although not entirely precise, the effort did show that The Martin's bow is larger than that of the JK-made Couf. I found that interesting. 

The Martin is much easier to play, and requires less air. The Couf needs more air than any of my horns. 

The other thing I did is compare the neck lengths of my 3 baris.
