What is the bore measurement of your Eb or F "cimbasso"?

[J.c. Sherman]

Mine aren't listed.

My slide instrument in F is .562 in the slide, and both the D and BBb valves are also .562. So that option isn't listed. It's a cranker and I've played Verdi, Puccini and Varese on it, as well as large trombone ensemble works. Never had a problem. I use a Kanstul 2A mouthpiece.

My BBb is a .640 bore in the valves, and larger (proprietary) afterwards; basically a dual bore, an idea worth exploring. This compact instrument can also rest on your shoulder. Another one of these is in the pipeline after an Eb job is finished.

I use either a Yamaha CB or a Bach contra mouthpiece on this.

Kilty, where did you find such a teeny valve section?

Hi-
FWIW, I did notice on Roger Bobo's website a pic of him and his Minick made F Cimbasso--according to the site, it still belongs to him but it currently resides with Lance Nagels in Quebec......maybe for sale???...
