What would be some smart changes? I'm curious about what could be improved on the hirsbrunners

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.

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 any ...

I tried to purchase this tuba and the seller wasn’t very nice, so someone else can get this deal!

Bump!

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. https://i.imgur.com/8TZFiV8.jpeg Horn is located in Chicago IL $6000 Feel free ...

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 fin ...

Hungarian March, the Strauss tone poems. Tchaik Romeo and Juliet can be a lot of fun!

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.

My friend has a MRP-C(p) and I tried it with mine, I really liked it. Mr. Perantoni has been trying to make this a standard feature for awhile.

I don’t know what this came from but think it was a B&S 5th valve extension. IMG_0420.jpeg I’ll take some careful measurements tomorrow night if that looks like it could work. That Could Potentially work, thanks for measuring! It would need to be the right bore(.825), I'm guessing the legs could be ...

Hello, I’m looking for the slide extension to the 5th valve of my B&S PT6p.

thanks!

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.

Title says it. Currently in Bloomington Indiana.


Thanks!

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

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 something I ...

Id say the pt-6 is still very popular

Beautiful tuba, if I were in the market I’d jump all over it!


Would putting a short bell on it potentially yield a nice Cc tuba?
