Happy New Year! I’m leaving early morning New Year’s Day to find a new BBb tuba. Looking for a 4-5 valve (piston or rotor, either is fine with me). Also heading to try a private horn up for sale! Anyone looking to sell a nice BBb tuba? Give me a shout!

That's really not nearly enough info for most of us! What did you play, why did you choose this one, which model number? And, a pic wouldn't hurt, if you can pull yourself away from the shiny new horn! :tuba:
Congrats on the purchase!

Frank, does this tuba based on a Miraphone BBb Hagen?

I don't believe so. I think it is a BBb rotary version of that well known 6/4 CC everyone is copying.
