Well, these are all European tubas, and Europe hasn't been in peacetime for *that* long, all things considered. Even the Berlin wall only fell ~20 years ago. If all states in the US were different, spoke different languages, only recently had the same money... it would be the same thing here.vintage7512 wrote:You tubists are really beginning to confuse the heck out of me!! I wish you could agree on this. How many friggin' clones are out there and what is the difference - aren't they all the same - like the 650 microwaves I made every day the summer after high school on the GE assembly line - Kenmoor, JC Penny, GE - all the same guts????......
What's a guy to think...
Anyway, this might be a decent deal. I think eBay is a fine place to buy something you know about, but a bad place to buy something to try. And beyond that, it's always best to buy something you know you could sell later if you're ready to move on.
Are you ready to try to explain to someone (now) what a Gerhard Baier tuba is? As a seller, there's a big difference between marketing something that "IS a [brand, model]" than something that "I swear, is JUST LIKE a [brand, model]"
