Re: OLD B&S catalogues

Post by HembachTuba »

Hello,
I recently bought an older B&S B tuba.
According to the serial number the tuba was built in 1990, in the month of August or September. It already has the engraving "Made in Germany"
The tuba has three valves.
What series / model is this tuba ?
Does anyone have a catalogue or the catalogue page for this tuba?

Thanks for information.

Hello Hembach Tuba,
Congrats on your new tuba! Für Blasmusik der absolut Hammer!
It is a model 103 or 3103. Before die Wende this model was a 103 and after it was renamed 3103 although in the 90s it was redesigned again and is quite different to the version you have. It's possible with 3 valves, it was called a 3102 but I am not certain. I would write the Museum in Markneukirchen zH Mario Weller and ask them for a catalogue photo.

Yes, for "Blasmusik" the tuba is absolutely great.
The machine has a conical course from 19mm to 22,5mm ! :tuba:

Thank you and best regards to Berlin
