Do you plan on offering a piston BBb version of this horn?

Yes, we should have the prototype of the BBb version in about 2 weeks. If all goes as planned with no further changes then the final production model will be available sometime in September. Pricing on the BBb model with 4 valves in a lacquer finish will be set at $1995.00.

Depending on demand, we may offer this with 5 valves. Anyone with opinions on a 5 valve BBb version please let me know, feel free to convince me to either make it or leave it as a 4 banger.
Your thoughts, the tubenet community, are appreciated and welcome.

I've posted this in the other thread, but thought I'd post it here also.

I love this horn. Got mine in January and it is a blast to play. Intonation is easy, slides are easy enough to reach if need be, and the tone is perfectly sweet. I mostly play solos with organ or in some sort of small brass ensemble, and this horn fits perfectly in those groups. Plus, it is light enough that I don't hate myself after lugging it up into the choir loft of churches.
