F Conn Tuba?
Posted: Tue Feb 15, 2005 2:51 pm
Hello from Paris!
I just discover the site, and i really enjoy it!
I saw on it, that Conn has made a prototype of a F tuba. Is it true? Is it on sale?
I played Gronitz Pf125 with 5 valves, and now I play a B&S 3100 (Pt10?) with 6 rotary valves. I love these two tubas, but I'm still looking for a F tuba with piston valves and a rich focused sound, with a lot of overtones (like my B&S).
When I play Jazz, I play a Conn 20J or a sousaphone Conn 20K. I also play a double bell conn euphonium. And I love the sound!
My dream would to find a Conn F tuba with short action valves, with the same proportions as my gronitz or yamaha 822.
In France, Conn is not sale, and we can't try these tubas.
More, I 'd like to try CC tubas 52J, 54J, and 56J: their look is so "terrific!"
Is someone able to answer my questions?
Thanks a lot and sorry for my very bad english!
