Of course, I would need to make up a name...

What is the one word - or pair of words - that is the MOST searched on eBay? :twisted:
Your gonna have XXX engraved on them?

The most searched would be something pornographic, I'd bet.

"Hard Core" maybe?

but, how about something else, more along the Bock line....which I do like, but might be a problem.

How about BAT? JS BAT

JS Bloke

Bloke CAT (C standing for cheap)

or...Cheap Chinese Tuba...truth in advertising

or, just call 'em Joe's Tubas

or, just Joe

I assume you'll add the essential 5 left hand pistons to every instrument?? :tuba:

Spaten means spade, so wouldn’t be far out.

What about ‘blokebuster’

How about "everyone should wear fancy hats/sun hats, gloves (if female), "gender appropriate" dress/suit,... like white people of older times?" :P

Heatherton.

In honor of the great Joey Heatherton. (search Amazon for a good album/CD cover ... time to bring back the naked lady).

Rocket.
Google Rocket Reeds. My brother makes them.

Hunt.
Nice concise name.
Thinking of Captain Dylan Hunt. "It's never easy."

Firefly.
The fine SciFi series that fell through the cracks.

Microsoft.
It will probably get you some free press.
Might cost you some in the end.

Fat Bastard.
So the wine company has trademarked it, but that's for wine, and maybe they won't mind.

Tarzan tubas.
What cool name for a tuba.
