The Search is Finally Over!

Post by BriceT »

Hello Everyone,

I am very excited to say that I have just bought my first C tuba this morning. I am a high school student and have been considering for a long time. I have just started lessons with Ed Jones of the Ft. Worth Symphony, and he offered me a deal on a former students Miraphone 1291. The tuba was barely played on by the student, and it was picked as one the "creme of the crop" in the factory. The deal also included a Reunion Blues gig bag and Protec hardcase all for an amazing $7,000! Thanks everyone for the help along the way!

AMEN!

I haven't heard Ed Jones teach, but I have heard him play. He attended the Texarkana TubaChristmas one year and played the solo on "Santa Wants A Tuba For Christmas". He's a hoss! Be a sponge and absorbe all of the knowledge he pours on you.
