Special Note on Bi-color, Beech-Horn, black, and yellow stem pipes

The aluminum band on the pipe is fixed to the clay stem and should not be removed.

In the case of the beech-horn stem, the beech and horn parts are one piece and should not be separated. The entire beech-horn section can be detached from the pipe for cleaning.
