But then she'll switch, and then you'll have to switch, and so on and so on, and the first thing you know, you know, you may actually have to BE good!

Gasp! I always thought that the horn was 90% of the equation.

I thought she also played on a Rudy Meinl rotory horn, her "solo horn."

From the sound of it, I doubt it matters *what* she's playing on...

Yeah, no doubt that she'd sound awesome on anything.

Carol has certainly had the choice of many different model tubas made available to her. She won tubas as prizes in her victories at more than one of the competitions. The principals of the tuba manufacturers know her personally and have invited her to try (and perhaps officially endorse) their horns.
Carol is to be admired for sticking to the equipment with which she was most comfortable and not succombing to the "here's the latest tuba" game.
