I recently had a Tuba stolen out of my car. The insurance company is offering me $3300 or a Bach 4-valve full size (if I pay the $500 deductible).
Some Questions:
1. Is the Bach good?
2. Should I take the money and buy a used tuba?
3. Are there any good used 4-valves that would be priced under $2000 (so I could have some $ left over)?
Keep in mind I probably won't be using this tuba in an orchestra and will most likely be using it to play in my brother's rock band, (which means it will probably be miced). I just need something that has decent tone and has at least 4 valves
Thank you!
