Hey
I own a BBb Sanders Imperial from Tuba World that I don't play anymore because I bought a Mira 1291 CC. Anyway... I personally enjoyed this instrument, partly because I got me to first chair All State Band (Pennsylvania) twice in a row and also because of the amount of effort it took to play, I have become a much better player. I think if you can play a Chinese Horn well, you can play anything well.
