They have them, but I think they're spelt 'Alexandre' :P
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

It looks legit to me. There are enough similarities between this one and my Marzan to make me think it is a non-comp protoype of the Willson Marzan collaboration. Maybe they were trying to tap the school market. Pics of my Marzan euph are on Dan's site.

Does it look to you guys like they used the same valve stack as the comp horn and just redrilled it? If it is the same bugle, the thing will play awesome. Monster sound! Without the comp it is probably an out of tune beast too.
I am fortunate to have a great job that feeds my family well, but music feeds my soul.

Aren't 4 piston valve bell front euphoniums common in Southern German oompah bands, as a bass instrument? I don't remember where, but I recall seeing a few German companies who make these.

Do you find that lots of long tones help you work around your rather feline-looking embouchure?
