Any rumors of a Wiseman or Chinese Piston F?

Post by tubaport »

Hi all. With the successful release of the new PT6 clone by Wiseman, I was wondering if anyone has heard information about them (or other Chinese clone companies) deciding to clone one of the popular large piston F tubas? If so, is it coming in the next year? Would love to hear from you if you know something, thanks!

The BMB horn F is not a clone, but it's a good-playing F assembled in China.
