I just saw this on Dillon's for sale page:

Looks really cool -- anyone know the story on it? I have to imagine it was custom ordered for someone...

Dillon's has had this model tuba in from time to time (when they were selling the M-W line). I'm sure that Matt Walters at Dillon's can give you the straight story on this particular one.

The M-W 25E BBb and the M-W 32 CC are basically the same except for pitch. They are very nice 5-valve horns (I have the 32). You will find differing opinions of these horns. Partly, it depends on how old they are, as they have been greatly improved in recent years.

As always, you'll have to try it out to determine if it's the right horn for you.

Cheers,
Allen
