But maybe not at that price? Looked like a loss leader...

A five valve Bubbie tuba would be nice (hint hint to Jonathan 8) )

With such small tubing, a 5th dependent valve option in the 4th valve tuning slide ( like a Yamaha 321 euph version) would be the way to go.......

A screw bell would be amazing.
