A tuba player I know once worked at Brass Bow in the Chicago area.

They were de-denting an Orsi EEb contrabass saxaphone. It needed two American guys just to carry it into the shop. Then one guy had to hold it down while the other hammered away at the damage.

Which was when my friend noticed that it had not only a lyre mount, but also a ring for a sax strap.
