Tubas, euphoniums, mouthpieces, and anything music-related.

Personally, I believe the vintage YBB-641 tubas were absolutely the best-ever tubas.

Which one is your favorite?

Huh, you don't say.

WELL good sir, or, as you prefer to be addressed as Bloke, you better own and keep it. Thankfully, you said the "vintage" ones. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume it's one of those 1 piece leadpipes versions...

I call dibs on the fancy Hilton or the most all around instrument, the Eb with 3 (well... 7? non-custom made from a mainstream tuba maker) bells!
