Do these horns have good intonation in BBb? I read on tubenet what an art it is to cut a BBb to a CC and it makes me wonder if the CB50 is really legit in BBb.

Mine was ok (not amazing, but not unmanageable) in BBb, but all of the slides do have to come out a bit and it wasn't the free-est blowing horn. The pictures for this one, though, doesn't seem to have the extension in the 5th valve that most others have and so I'm not sure if one would be able to get it down to pitch easy enough.
