As someone just picking up tuba again after 45 years, I want one of these so badly. Beautiful tone, spot on intonation, probably about the best bang for the buck out there.
@@Euphonium_boi Gotcha. I do have a Packer euphonium, and it is an excellent euphonium, however, I’m not enough of a euphonium player to do it justice on video (or anywhere else).
@@buffalobillh I could say the same for a trombone I have. Blessing F trigger, 8.5 in bell. Model and serial number is scratched off though, I got it used
Finally, a thorough review of a 3+1 Eb tuba! As a non-brit who's interested in buying one someday, it's surprisingly hard to find demos with decent audio quality
I hope it was helpful! I’ll definitely be doing more videos featuring it. If I left anything out, or if there is anything you want to know, I’ll be glad to help.
I have this tuba now for a few days. Good constructed, finish and weldings. Surprisingly! Fat sound and easy response. I have to find out more about the tuning and intonation. Maybe I will cut in the compensationtube of the first valve, on the backside.
@@DrDreMFoemper Thanks for sharing your impressions of the tuba. I hope you will let me know how you like the tuba after you have played it for a while. I really enjoy mine!

I have to agree that these are great tubas, and it helps that they aren’t terribly expensive.
@@buffalobillhI thought it was a euphonium for a bit

I used to double occasionally on trombone and bass bone 😳 - I can relate. I sure wouldn’t do it in public today!

And I hope to find the optimal distance for the microphone.

Thanks for a great review 👍
Thanks. It was my pleasure!
thank you-gorgeous uloading. farewell,
Thank you!
Love your reviews, Bill! Keep it up!!!
Likewise, my friend!!!
Is this Tuba equipped with belt loops/marching rings??
Yes. It has marching rings on the back side just like the Boosey and Besson compensating Eb tubas.
Thx for your reply.

You’re welcome.
Nice!
Thanks!
Santa bring the overalls🤔 Cool tuba!! 👍
I have a regular pair, and I have these striped Sunday-go-to-meetin’ pair for public outings and tuba videos.
Is that a lacquered silver?
It’s silver plated. No lacquer.
The case pads are moveable.
I saw that. I’ll figure out what works best. It’s a nice case for sure!
I have that T-shirt!!!
Cool! All you need is a pair of Liberty overalls! I need to take inventory of my tuba shirts. That might be a video of its own!
I like Bb tubas much more.
I understand. I also have a large Bb tuba, and it is a wonderful instrument.
That will change the more you play. EEb is a much more versatile instrument. And I’m primarily a Bbb player. Both bessons.
