Yes, MW makes (or made) other BBb's. The 18 is a compact design BBb, Dillon music was selling a used one for 3200. or there-abouts. They also make some 3/4 BBb's, the model numbers escape me...
I personally think the 25 is the best BBb I have ever played, but...
I am not YOU!
Cerveny's are fine tubas, there are pros who use them (the CC's). You should be looking for a tuba that produces a good sound for you & forget what it says on the bell. Do not be put off a particular brand because of some posting here. (besides, we haven't heard from Jay or Roger, yet!)
both MW's and Cerveny's are built well enough to last a lifetime, so the question becomes: which one do you want to play for all that time?
