I don't know the answer to your question. Have you checked their website? I believe that info is up. Are you planning to go? I was considering not spending the bucks. It has become pretty expensive. You just might motivate me to spring for it.

You better not think what I think you're thinking. :D

That's a pretty strong endorsement. Can't wait to try one. How large is the sound? Comparisons?[/quote]


It will be an uplifting experience for you:

I also couldn't care less what others think of tubas/mouthpieces/widgets I like or don't like, so flail away.
I'll start right here then. :P

I'll be there all day. Unfortunately, I don't see Meinl Weston listed. Nor Kanstul (they were here last year, though). Besson brought their 995 (I saw it out today).
