Aren't all of us who come here regularly "Tubaholics"?

Just because you're on a diet, it doesn't mean that you can't look at the menu!

I believe I've heard that quote before. Let me see, now. Where did I hear that.........?

Ooops, make that 4 BBb's. 1CC and 1 F tuba!

I believe you must be talking about Dalyan. These are decent horns. I played the CC for about a month, myself. I thought it was pretty good. I have also spent a little time with the Piggy and one of the BBb models. I believe they are worth the money.

Exactly...I think the term horn dorn sums it up nicely

And yes, there can be ethical / moral issues involved for all those young people who go into mega credit card or student loan debt to own a stable full of shiny new pro horns designed for full time players in 100 piece symphony orchestras making 100K.
