Yes, you're right, I just compared it to

Now after reading all this pages and some googling I have found the real Cimbasso

Visst är jag också söt säger Cimbasso
(which translates to somethiing like:
Of course I am also cute says Cimbasso) ;-)
Yeah, the dog's name is Cimbasso... :-)

More like a WTFophone! What is that? The bell looks a bit large-throated for a cimb.

Bloke, I'm still gonna use it! :lol:

Sorry, talking about cimbasso's is out.

If you want to troll a thread, "York Copy" is what you're looking for.

Strange, as soon as someone dig out an older thread some thinks it is about trolling :?

However, I know it is out to talk about cimbassi, now it is in to play the things instead. :)

Ophicleide on the other hand...
