I will bet that this is NOT a BBb horn. There's not enough tubing. It's gotta be an Eb or an F.

Unless that's a VERY large instrument, I do believe that you're on to something...

I emailed the seller and he insists this is a BBb tuba... sooooo... I guess it is.

If he can play just a l'il bit, of course an Eb tuba will blow an open Bb...
Well, if you win the bidding and it turns out to be an eefer, you could always send it back....

Ich denke auch, daß das Messingrohr länger sein würde, wenn es im Ernst eine BBbTuba wäre...
