Forward-Facing Silent Brass?

Post by Gongadin »

Will Silent Brass work for sousaphones or recording bell tubas?

The thing is HUGE, but what the picture below doesn't show is that there is even more of it inside the tuba than there is outside the tuba. It kind of accordians down - way down - like some kind of alien probe.

HOLY HANNAH! I thought that was some sort of black plastic beer keg!
Hmmm...wait a minute...y'know, that's not a bad idea at all! I'm sure that the more the tuba fills up with beer, and the more beer that reaches my gullet through the mouthpiece and down my hatch, the better I'll sound!!
