Does anyone have experience with this...
I was looking at this - MACK-TU200 BBb 4/4 Tuba online. If someone has played this tuba, I'd be interested in your opinion. I'm on a tight budget & looking for something to play in a community band & church ensemble. Thanks.

I will say that I have done business with Tom and would not hesitate one instant to do so again.

If at first you don't succeed, skydiving's probably not for you.

The Mack company has a great reputation for trucks, don't know about their tubas, though . . .

Chip, a straight answer, if you haven't seen it here yet.
As with any Chinese instruments, try it. Tom Mack is great to work with, has a fair and solid return policy. That tuba is made in China, by Jin Bao, and is sold by numerous dealers under numerous names. The main distiguishing thing is the dealer, how they will deal with you, and the price. Search Jin Bao 4/4 BBb and Mack Brass 4/4 BBb, you'll find lots of info.
