I need to acquire one Bb and one Eb tuba for use in a brass band. Will probably purchase new but used is not out of the question either. Any recommendations from anybody for brands, models, etc? Any brass band tuba players out there? If so, what do you use? I saw a post here a few weeks back about front-action Bessons. It raved about the Eb model but folks didn't seem too happy with the quality of construction of the Bb horn. Any more opinions on that?
