Re: WTB Cheap Bass Tuba In Eastern Pa

Would the valves needed replated be a worry?

Re: WTB Cheap Bass Tuba In Eastern Pa


Just a heads up that most of what you'll find in that price range will be older 3v Eb tubas. Not sure that's exactly what you're looking for.

I am working on converting a Martin Medium Eb to a five valve, front action tuba using King valves and a Cerveny rotor.

I also have a five valve F tuba ...

Tuba Shank Size?

I’ve been playing my new Kalison DS, but the mouthpiece I’ve been using has an American shank. It seems to go in deeper than I expected, which makes me think the horn might actually take a Euro shank, even though I’ve heard some people say the DS is an American shank horn. I’d appreciate it if you ...

Kalison Tuba Mouthpiece recommendations

Tonight I had my first lesson on my new Kalison Daryl Smith C tuba, and while my teacher said it has a great, very open sound, we noticed that the open partial was extremely sharp while the rest of the horn tuned well, which happened while using my Houser Hersey cup with a symphony american shank ...

That’s what i’ve been doing, it’s an old post I updated and no longer use these.

Re: Looking for CC Tuba for College Under $5k in Eastern PA

I currently have a great BBb tuba (a Jupiter 1110); however, I plan to double major in education and performance and go beyond to at least a masters degree, and my professor has said in emails that all of his students play either F or CC tubas and would recommend that I learn one as well.

What was the cost to add the 2nd valve water key? I never thought of that its always full.

Upgrades for Jupiter 1110 (582) Tuba?

Hey everyone,

I’m currently playing on a Jupiter 1110 (582) BBb tuba and was wondering what kinds of upgrades or modifications I could do to make it play better and last longer. I take good care of it, but I’m interested in things like better valve guides, springs, leadpipe swaps, or any small ...

I'm currently in the summer before my senior year of high school, and I've been researching colleges and their audition requirements. I’ve noticed that some schools require scales—do they typically need to be memorized? I've been preparing two pieces: Bach’s Air and Bourrée and Suite for Tuba, and I ...
