Re: Buying a Tuba

That is one of the horns i'm looking at and i've been trying to get in touch with him for a few days now. I'm heading up to edmonton on the weekend so hopefully he responds before then.

Does anyone know how i might be able to get a hold of him, i think his user name is cctubaneeds.

Thanks

Perhaps consider treating your purchase an adventure and be open minded about your options. As mentioned earlier, you can do a road trip...another option is attending the Army Tuba Conference in Washington DC from Feb 3-6 . I just found tickets from Calgary on Expedia round trip starting at $342. There's plenty of tubas to try and the shops attending will bring something for you if you let them know ahead of time. Maybe some nice locals on the board here would bunk you for a night or two.

Just a thought.
