I bought this tuba. Does anyone have an inclination what brand it could be?

The Thumb ring looks like vintage Cerveny. Nothing that I can see leads me any other direction.

Whatever it is, I like the look of it. How does it play?

Not the universal, knee-jerk "Cerveny". I have never seen a Cerveny tuba with those squared off feet on the braces. Nor a B&S which was my first guess (and which I've seen fewer of).

Pretty surely from that far Eastern Germany/Western Czech Republic neighborhood but I'm pretty sure not Cerveny.

Also probably a great horn.

Looks like you got a heckuva deal on it. Can't wait to hear it!
