New Video Kaiser BBb tubas, vs Alex CC-

[Ben]

Cant check the videos at work, are you comparing your 601 to a 164? The initial vid was had a 163 in it. I just wanted to know what you were comparing.

Thanks.

The Cerveny sounds nice, but I just LOVE the sound of that Alex. Looks like a newer one, how old is it?

I'm sure the sound is different in person, as well as your familiarity with both horns and keys. Both horns are winners, but my ears prefer the Alex.

The Alex is a 163, would have been nice to have a 164 though.

The Alex is a newer one and playes very well in tune: Here is an etude I did last night as well showing the Alex.

That Alex is awesome!

Does any US retailer carry new Cerveny or Alexander tubas, or are they only available by special order or used?

Hornguys sells Alex tubas, although I think they're still special order. No clue about Cerveny, you can order them from WWBW or Dillons, but again, I think they're special order and you'll have to wait a while for it.
