My King 1241 is pretty much the same horn you have. I have never felt the need to mess with the 4th valve slide while playing - can make my adjustments off the first valve slide. I did add a lttle thingie to prevent me from pullng the slide completely out of the horn, though. Other than that, I would consider putting a spring loaded jigger on the MAIN tuning slide to cover any other intonation problems - an idea I got from Tony Clemments. Easier and more praticle, I think.
BTW, a 19" upright bell is available for that horn if the recording bell seems too "directional".
