Nice. I like the Cerv 681 BBb tubas :tuba: The only 'flat-natured' tuning I came across on that model was the open 3rd line D. Everything else was very well in-tune :!:

My Cerveny 691 CC behaves the same, needs the tuning slide all the way in to play at A=440.

Apparently there was a batch of.these that were needed to be modified from factory due to being too long
