I really really appreciate the advice from everyone. Im going into my second year in college. It’s not very common in Louisiana to play Eb, but I like it lol. I’ve been busy working in two repair shops last week(school shop and a M&A) so and haven’t been able to check on this post or reply but I will ...

Eb tubas

I’ve been considering getting an Eb tuba instead of an F tuba in college(I find I like the sound I get in them more). But with the nature of being in college, I don’t tend to just have money lying around and have to plan ahead. The Questions: What kind of Eb tubas are out there(4 and 5 valve) and wha ...

new to me, 1916 frank holton british style 4v Euphonium

Here's what I know. From the 1915 catalog this is advertised as "The Holton Long Model Mammoth Bore Euphonium." I say its a "british style" horn only because it has the 3+1 orientation, not the front 4 or top 4 like I've seen online. This one is in really good shape, other than being very dirty ...

Re: Parts parts parts pt.2
