A band I occasionally play with had an old Martin "Handcrafted" sousaphone. It was a beauty and really played. It weighed a ton but what a sound. I am 90% sure that was a Martin. It has been a few years since I have played it and so I could be mistaken. But I remember someone saying the Martin Handcrafted instruments were very fine, as was this particular sousa.
