I have a lot of questions about the new MRP CC, and since I wasn't able to make ITEC, I'd like to know some feedback on this horn. How it compares to the other heavy hitters out there, like the Holtons, Yorks, Nirchls, PT6/PT6P, PT7P, Thor, Baer, Gronitz, etc. I'm going to be in the market in the next year or so for a new CC tuba, and I have a pretty good handle on what I like, and don't like, but I've never tried one of these out, that's why I'm asking you these questions.
So I'm asking the Tubenet community, how does the this new horn compare to the other great horns out there. Any feedback would be helpful.
Thanks in advance,
Zac

Or maybe he wants a 6/4 piston tuba?

Well how 'bout that? I typically ignore B&S, but guess I should at least educate myself. Whoops.

Re: MRP CC
I did find it interesting the list started with Holton and York, for a "new" tuba. What's up with the Willson?

Re: MRP CC
I've never played an Alex, and I have only played one Rudy 5/4, belonging to Bloke. That's why I didn't post about those two.tuben wrote:Heavy hitters and no Alexander or Rudy Meinl?TubaZac2012 wrote:How it compares to the other heavy hitters out there, like the Holtons, Yorks, Nirchls, PT6/PT6P, PT7P, Thor, Baer, Gronitz, etc.
