Re: Dents???
So you got it fixed, and didn't have to pay a fortune. That's great.
Does it play any differently?
Did you notice any intonation issues or response changes that could be blamed on the dent or its removal?

The cat is not mine, it might have been a door, but thats the part that is on my back so I do not see how a door would have caught it...

Or perhaps you should hire a bodyguard for your 1291

Re: Dents???
You must be terribly unlucky. Cats dent your tuba and repairmen make errors. What have you done to deserve this?tubashaman2 wrote:I am going to pick up my tuba.
The repairman is giving it for free because he could not get the entire dent out and said the lacquer is starting to peel.
I will just find a repair man whereever I do my masters to take the horn apart and fix his error, at least I tried.
