The pistons look so uncomfortably far away the thumb ring.

I still want to play on one.

Or, pretty close...

Kind of like Gangeyphones, except with European horns...

I was at Jim Laabs branch store in the Twin Cities area this afternoon to try out some of the horns. I'll post in a new thread with impressions but sadly this one was not in stock at that store.

Seeing that I'm having trouble getting my hands on a horn near me, I feel oddly compelled to get me one of these. Talk some sense into me!

How much would it cost you? I mean, it's probably not a bad tuba, but I think you'd have to consider what else you can get for the same $$$$.
