There seems to be a confusion about tuba sizes. I think we all agree that the Miraphone 186 CC or BBb is probably THE 4/4 tuba. What about the others? Should we change the system to X/8 instead of X/4. For example, a Rudy 3/4 would be a 7/8, a Rudy 4/4 would be more a 9/8, the same a 188. The weril's would be a 5/8. What about Eb's and F's? What would your instrument be?
