PT-6

PT-3P

Okay, I looked it up. I suppose either horn would be okay. See if one of these other tuba guys is selling theirs used. I've never heard of the PT-3P until I saw this description. I have played a PT-6, but I've also buzzed on a trombone with a similar response-one breath per note. Farah
