What is in the rumor mill for a Chinese 6/4 (or large 5/4) tuba?
I have heard mention that something might be coming, but nothing as of late.

What, is this an Apple product? Designed in the US, manufactured in China...?LJV wrote:There is a large piston CC in the works coming from China.
How soon? Dunno.
It was developed in the US.
It's not a "York-o-phone," but sounds pretty cool.
That is all...

What do you call that 20K knock-off (pictured above) ?
I just think most companies call it "Made in China," not this phoney baloney Apple/Mac "but we're kinda still cool in California."
