What would be some smart changes? I'm curious about what could be improved on the hirsbrunnersmatt g wrote: Wed Feb 12, 2025 4:20 pm That’s a really solid price. Definitely in the category where you’d have room to tweak it a bit with some smart changes and still have money leftover compared to other 6/4 horns of similar quality

FS: Sierman Mars Piston F tuba
For sale is a really great F tuba. It is very similar to the Mrp-F tuba. It has the great same high range and low range. Valve switched to accept Yamaha valve guides.

Re: The Metropolitan Opera -Tuba job
Does anyone know if the average Joe-Schmoe or student will be able attend the audition? I.E will there be a harsh resume round. I know it’s probably in their best interest to have a smaller audition, but I can think of a couple big jobs that were won by new comers recently. I’m curious if there’s ...

FS: Miraphone Premium 6v F tuba
Hello, for sale is a Miraphone premium F tuba. This the the model right before they renamed it to bel canto. Shockingly good low register, great sound, and good intonation. A good F tuba for anyone.
Comes with a gig bag.

Re: Portland, OR: 5v Conn 6/4 "Connzilla" w/ both bells, $1,695
I doubt that Matt Walters built that horn. That question mark shaped port on the third valve would be a no-no in his book, I’d wager.
Not that it doesn’t work or anything bad, just that Matt seemed to really enjoy building up valve clusters that looks as good, if not better than, something you’d ...

Re: WTB: B&S 5th slide extension
The ones Andy smith were selling are for rotary pt-6s.
I asked the man himself and the 5th is bigger. 4th is .770 and 5th is around .830. Older ones might be 0.750 in the 5tj valve.

Re: worst paying college majors
What about the people that their only shot of going to college is a good music scholarship… I know plenty of people like this.
While a tuba degree isn’t terribly usefull, it’s better than no degree. Paper ceiling and all. Going to college in modern times is very very expensive.

I think by routing the Lead-Pipe differently you can achieve this.

Re: Elephant Room Impressions (Add your own in the replies)
Didn’t anyone play any any of Lee Stofer’s Lidl horns? Interested in impressions of those.
I spent some time on the horns. I found the smaller F tuba to be very nice. Good tone and high range. The larger F I didn’t like so much. Both sported a pretty good low C.
The CCs were fun, but not ...
