Re: Upright Bell for Martin Mammoth

I believe @Lee Stofer has one in stock. I think it was made from a Kanstul bell, but I'm not totally sure about that part.

Re: Is Tubenet busted?

I tried to recover my account, but that isn't working. I also tried to make a new account, but it just keeps refreshing the "I agree to these terms" page when I click "I agree to these terms" button. Fine. I'm much happier on tubaforum anyway!

I just tried to log in with my account. It says my account doesn't exist. It also says there are 0 registered users online at the bottom of the page. Maybe they got rid of all accounts?

Re: Looking for a 6/4 5v CC tuba

Lee Stofer has a very nice Holton/Kanstul CC tuba for sale. It is listed on his "Instruments in Process" page on the website. We have not taken photos for the ad yet, but I played it for a concert series. It was a good time. I would be happy to answer any questions about that tuba or feel free to ...

Re: “New” Parker Mouthpieces?

I'm surprised nobody has posted a reply. I didn't get a chance to try them since I was working a booth, but his booth was always very busy with people testing mouthpieces. I'd love to hear what people thought.

Re: Show off your bell-front tuba!

York-aholic I own that Martin Medium now. I'm working on replacing the leadpipe one it. The one that was on it has a bunch of pinholes in it, which I discovered when I was cleaning it. It still played great that way, but it obviously needed attention. I'm working on creating a setup that is very ...

Re: Elephant Room Impressions 2025 (Please add yours too)

arpthark Lee Stofer had the Alex. I immediately thought of you when we took it in.

Personally, I really enjoyed the HB2P at Baltimore brass. I thought it was one of the best examples I have played. The 6v Hirshbrunner played well, but it was heavy. 6 valves on a CC will do that.

The Lidl 684 at ...

@the elephant The one that lists the 836 for it is leather. The cordura bag is a Gronitz PCK bag. We would be happy to take measurements of the bags and discuss it with you.

@the elephant @Aiden Pisterov

Lee Stofer has a cordura and a leather bag that should fit 836 sized tubas. I would encourage you to give him a call. I just posted photos of some of the bags available on his business Facebook page.

Re: Kanstul Eb F Standard mouthpiece

From what I remember, Lee gave then an RM 9 to copy. The Kanstul Eb/F mouthpiece is very heavily influenced by that Rudolf Meinl mouthpiece. Lee can probably give you more information on this.

On March 4th we drove the remaining Lidl stock to Buddy Rogers Music in Ohio. At this time they are representing Lidl. We are more than happy ...
