I saw this on ebay and I was wondering from you professionals what key this tuba would be in. The seller doesn't know any info about it so I'm kinda in the dark. Thanks for helping!

Re: HELP question about an old tuba
Agreed. Eb. But... not for the same reason. Sometimes the perceived length of that 3rd wrap can be deceiving. However... the lack of a full 2nd wrap of the open bugle pretty much tells me this is an Eb horn at first glance.TheHatTuba wrote:Eb. 3rd slide wrap gives it away.
