Do not miss the Miraphone or the Besson, where ever they may be.

Re: Why I play Alexander tubas
I'm really enjoying my Alex BBb acquired a couple of months ago from another tubenetter. It has the SOUND but the intonation is a whole lot easier to control than the CC version. I'm not ready to make it my instrument of first choice, but it sure is fun to play.
Gnagey CC, VMI Neptune 4098 CC, Mirafone 184-5U CC and 56 Bb, Besson 983 EEb and euphonium, King marching baritone, Alexander 163 BBb, Conn 71H/112H bass trombone, Olds Recording tenor trombone.
