2024 DC Tuba Workshop: Willson 3400 Eb Front Action?

[Somarithedark]

Will anybody be in attendance at the 2024 Pershing's Own Tuba-Euphonium Workshop that will be bringing a Willson 3400 Eb tuba with front action pistons? If so, would you be willing to let me try one? I can't seem to find one anywhere and I am dying to know what they play like.

I'll likely have my older personal 3400-FA5. I work for Chuck Levin's if you wanted to try it, then please see come see me at my booth. As far as I know there are none in stock in the US currently.

I will find you and ask, mentioning this thread. Thank you so much for your kindness!

I can't speak for the Willson 3400 Eb, but I'll have a Willson 3200 RZ-5 F-tuba at my booth, FWIW.
