What do we call it?

Post by edsel585960 »

3 short action front valves, Conn, upright bell. 23J? It seems like the logical progression. http://s1029.photobucket.com/user/edsel ... t=3&page=1" target="_blank :tuba:
Conn 20-21 J
Conn 10J, Conn 26 K, Martin Mammoth, Mirafone 186, Soviet Helicon, Holton Raincatcher Sousaphone, Yamaha 103, King 1240.
