Hey, it could've been named 'John the Baptist' euphonium

(I know, don't head in that direction... )

Does that mean it can only be washed in the Jordan River?

I actually worked in the brass section at Sam Ash Hollywood many years ago. It was the worst job I ever had, and didn't last long. But I do remember selling Jean Baptiste horns, which are made in Brazil. They suck. I haven't tried them, but I would bet the Chinese horns are better.
