Never underestimate the usefulness of a good single trigger horn with a solid E pull. Plus, it forces you to develop good slide technique.

The OP wanted something more portable than a tuba. How is a bass guitar and a decent bass amp (plus cables and the inevitable extension cord) more portable?

Very true, but since I already have a single rotor tenor bone, I would love a bass bone like the Mack Brass double rotor!
