Schiller AH BBb 5 Valve Piston Compensation Tuba?????

Post by Bandmaster »

I was looking through eBay tonight and found this listing way back in the long term for sale section. I have not seen this model for sale before and it is described as a " Compensating" BBb with 5 valves. Anybody know anything about this one? How does it play?

It's not compensating. Another instance of bad Schiller advertising. It's the Miraphone 1291 BBb copy.

It's the same Jinbao horn that M&M sells as the "MM-TU 8000 Bb/A Tuba"
