Sometimes, but I would think it depends more on whether you are a performance or an education major. Performance majors should really think about switching, but education majors will most likely be teaching BBb tuba to their students when they get a job teaching school. So I don't see the big need to switch if you are planning to be a teacher. Don't let anyone "force" you to change if you really don't want to.dejaime wrote:I am under the impression that whether or not you need a CC tuba in college is decided by the instructor. Is this true?

There are many fine BBb horn in the size and price range you want, and most have been recommended already.

With a $10,000 budget, this would leave you with more than $6,000 to get a case (and an Eb or F tuba too).
