Am I reading this correctly? Is M&M actually releasing a tuba named the "Pro BAT Tuba"? Surely I'm way off on this, surely goodness and mercy.

I agree, and the pictures suck... Gotta love it! A little dark, a little fuzzy and five small pics not really showing details.

17 3/4 Bell, .788 Bore, 36" high 23" wide 10" deep

Kind of a squatty little thing isn't it?

Oh, "THE BAR!"

I was looking on the tuba for some kind of support bar!!!

That lil' wimpy thing behind the tuba!? That's not a bar. At most, that's just a decoration.

Now THIS is a bar...

If it is as the add appears, an instrument maker has marketed a tuba with the acronym "BAT" in the name. I found that amusing. I kind of figured that might be a clue to the authenticity of the add. That and the fact that they spent two years in the development of the tuba and took the publicity photos in front of their dorm room bar. " here's yer sign"

Maybe some company will have a tuba endorsed by the "freak jury" and a few tubenetters can make some spending money. I wonder what it would take to get a unanimous endorsement?

It's not likely that the TubeNet 'freak jury' will agree totally on anything!

I don't know, Tim... I mean you could say that, but then again you'd probably be wrong. (So I guess you're right, right?)
