I, too, love my RM tubas, a 5/4 F and 4/4 CC. I've had them both for over 20 years and won't part with them. I had a silver 4/4 CC made for the USAREUR Band in Germany in 2006 and if I ever run across that instrument, I will have to own it. Those two are the best playing examples of that model I've ...

I can order you a Goetz Supersac for the Kanstul if you'd like. Send me an email for more details; chite AT buddyrogers DOT com.

The Miraphone bags are produced by Soundline and we get the ones for Lidl tubas. If you'd like to send what you're looking to outfit, I can see what our cost would be. We also get Supersacs from Goetz, top loading bags that used to come with B&S/Melton instruments. Let me know if you'd like more ...

Have both Hercules and K&M stands in stock. We'll ship for free. Let me know if you're interested.

I have been a member for eleven years and find the association a benefit to us and customers. They do publish a monthly digital journal, "Technicom," and it is often a good source of technician experience and inspiration to try new things. Techs aren't always able to attend a national conference ...

That could certainly be arranged. I do have a B-stock 632S but am sold out of the 832. Hopefully getting one soon, not sure if silver or lacquer. Road trip to Dillon or some such might offer infinitely more information than the freak jury. EDIT: @the elephant Buddy Rogers (Cincy) has 'em too ...

We've had many 632s and 832s in the showroom and shop. The 632 has a .689" valve bore through all four pistons where the 832 is a graduated bore. The 832 is made of lighter gauge brass which gives the feel of a slightly more nimble instrument (my opinion). Fifth valve linkage and position are very ...

I've got every size of practice mute in stock.

I'll take some pics this week and post.

Sizes range from -2 to 14, 17 distinct sizes in fact. And that's just the practice mutes. The Mnozil Brass Tour Mutes and Vienna Straight Mutes, along with cup models, have their own numbering system. There's a lot to keep track of.

If one were to look inside the mute on the foam batting, there should be a number written in there. I have to rely on that when the stickers on the outside fall off. Our size charts do state that a #11 fits the DS but I need to confirm that when another comes in the shop. And #6 is the proper ...

I get this nearly everyday with players looking for new mouthpieces. I always start with the same two questions; 1.what do you like about your current setup?, 2. what do you dislike/what do you seek to change? Without knowing where one's starting point is, lots of time and money will be wasted with ...

A #8 will fit your Hirsbrunner. We have them in stock and ready to ship. And I apologize for the size guide not being readily available. I will be seeing to that.

Their herald trumpets were fantastic. TUSAB had (may still have) a set, possibly other premier bands as well. I spent some time with the 4/4 CC, 3/4 F, and the 5490 Grand CC. Each had their own quirks. The F was more than a bit squirrely but sounded great. No complaints about the 4/4 CC except maybe ...

I have the body/flange section in silver. That will get you halfway. Contact me if interested.

Cincinnati Brass Band has one, I played it when I didn't own a suitable large BBb. It sounds great but I just can't do a 3+1 configuration for tuba. I'm fine on euphonium, actually prefer it to four right hand valves. They are large and difficult to handle for some players and that's where a playing ...

Thanks, Mark, we do have a Faxx aluminum mute for $249.99. If you're planning to attend either the SERTEC or MWRTEC, I will have the mute, and much more to try. And I do ship to the lower 48 US states.
