Haydn with great compression?
http://cgi.ebay.com/4-valve-rotary-tuba ... dZViewItem
Hey, a chance to buy a a haydn without paying "the usual thousands of dollars from the major stores"...
Wish he had qualified how he comes by this statement...I can say it plays just as well as the name brands.
But what I really want to know is how (in his main picture) he was able to get that sucker ( ) to hang on the wall!

To which, if I'm not mistaken, the correct response is "Bells to the wall!"zoro wrote:Hence, the familiar greeting when two Haydn owners meet: "How's it hangin'?".Brassdad wrote:http://cgi.ebay.com/4-valve-rotary-tuba ... dZViewItem

They are pieces of junk.
My dad bought one because they were ending an auction and the tuba was only $60, so he got it, it came, its intonation was about a half step flat with all of the slides pushed in, it had so much resistance every note was a pain to get except a pedal Bb (which was easier to get than BBb) and the brass is very weak.
