Baltimore Brass, thank you!

Post by Mark E. Chachich »

Thanks to Baltimore Brass,

I had my Alexander 163 in for a spa (chem leaning). They did their usual excellent job! They also have a lot of nice tubas to test drive!

The first three tubas in the Bel Air Community are aging Alexanders, Baltimore Brass keeps them in great shape!

This. Just got my Alex back after they cleaned the valves and made sure there was no debris left from the recent overhaul.

Unfortunately, I did not have time to test drive anything. So many tubas, so little time..............
