Re: ALEXANDER 151 MH tenor tuba
Hello,
Yes, the one in the link provided is in Bb, not C.
The latter seems very rare...
And I don't know what the "G" after 151 means, but the C version was called "MH".
Thanks anyway for yours posts !

Hello,
I've just discovered these pages, superb photos, thank you !
