Re: Cervenys?
Christal, this is the BBb Piggy. The piggies are pretty great all-around horns, newer ones seem to be built a little more consistantly than the old ones (1980's and earlier). If you get a good one, they are really good. For a 3/4 rotary BBb, they are pretty terrific, definitely a value if you get a good one.

Re: Cervenys?
5 valves will do that to an instrument.
PIggy's of old can be terrific, or can be dogs. As much as with any Alexander, try it, try it, then have someone else try it, then try it again, before you buy it.

From the Cerveny website:
"NEWS OF THE FRANKFURT MUSIKMESSE
Dear Mr. Sonnleitner!
I was on Friday in Frankfurt with the music fair. I probably tried instruments on this day a few dozens. Mainly tubes of Miraphone, Meinl, Melton, B&S, in addition, of different American offerers such as Conn and getting Holton. Also with Cerveny I was natural: And that is the reason of my letter. The CERVENY F-tuba CFB 661-6GPRX was the best F-tuba on the whole fair. The most expensive instruments of B&S and Miraphone could keep up straight times in such a way!!! And that, although the Cerveny costs only somewhat more as half than the others!!! With the b-tubes the CERVENY EMPEROR TUBA COMPACT MODEL CBB 793-5RX could keep up also with the best ones of the others, with importantly better price/achievement relationship!! And also the CERVENY EMPEROR TUBA CBB 691-4R was inspiring. However I wish myself for a large Sinfonieorchester rather the 5-valve variant, for which "normal use" is one with the 691-4R however in the best way served! Love of greetings from the in the meantime springful Karlsruhe in the probably still winter Bad Goisern
Your Peter Pacher "
Cheers
