I was just browsing the Willson site and saw a 4400 CC tuba.
Is this a new instrument? Does anyone have any experience with it that they'd share with us?

According to TubaNews.com the indicated horn is CC. Check the link: http://www.tubanews.com/instrument256.html

site, they list it as C. They also inicate an 18mm/19mm bore(I assume 19's the rotor), which would be a smallish 0.708".

Sounds vagueliy like the same valveset as the 3400 Eb.

If you look at the valve tubing length in the picture, small or not, it ain't no C, F, or Eb!
