Greg Russell (Groton alumnus, the person who pointed out the painted
weights to me) had the idea to ask Whitechapel. This is the response
>>The information that you have from our tuning book is perfectly
correct. The net and gross weights painted on to the bells relate
to
the shipping weights. The net weight for the tenor is the
combined
weight of the bell and headstock whilst the gross weight is the
total
weight of bell, headstock and pallet.
