Went to Durham this week to check out the collection and donate a horn. Vince is up to 319 horns now. :) Had a great time and it was fun picking Vince's brain. https://photos.app.goo.gl/FY37oDZCnNknCb376" target="_blank

I changed the settings. May work now. I'm so electronically challenged. :wink: :roll:

Wow. Looks good! Thank's for the photos.
On his homepage he listed a Riedl/ Nürnberg BBb Tuba. Did you seen it?

That is definitely a Bohland and Fuchs Bb Tuba!
I would like to play the tuba and hear her sound!

Not even if you have a “professional” badge from TubeNet?! :D

In all seriousness, I’d love to see the collection. But part of me would be very frustrated in not getting to hear it.
