Wurlitzer 153 Hoses Swapped
By Jeff Bryner

Hi all,  I'm very new to our hobby here.  I just bought a Wurlitzer 153
and I have a question that can hopefully be easily answered and solved.
Whenever the music roll calls for the snare drum to play, a bass pipe
plays (I think it is 'C'), and whenever bass pipe 'C' is called to play,
the snare drum plays.

Is all that is needed is to swap the two hoses around on the back of
the tracker bar?  If so, what hoses go where?  I know the snare drum
hole is number 6 and the bass pipe 'C' is number 11 on the tracker bar.
So what holes behind the tracker bar are the right hoses?  Thanks all!
