Here is a Mack 410. The quintet played last night at the Kennedy Center, right across the street from the Army Band Tuba Euphonium Conference. They played Ewazen's Colchester Fantasy. It starts at 31:40. The video starts out with a euphonium/marimba duet by Adler.

We're looking forward to the conference today.

If someone happened to have such a horn and offered it for sale. What, in your estimation, would it sell for?

I very much liked the 5th valve on my 184 being 2+3. I may get one of the 410s in the reasonably near future, and was wondering what it would cost to have a 2+3 slide for it, and if any other mods would be necessary.
