One 1962 Reynolds sousa, one 1904 Conn sousa, one 1923 Holton upright, one 1926 Conn upright, one 1935 King bell front, and one homemade helicon... all EEb! They all have some fairly specific purpose such as; the Reynolds sousa for outside Dixieland, the Conn sousa for ourside concert band use, the helicon for strolling stuff like Christmas carroling, either of the two uprights for those times when a LOT of tuba isn't necessary, and the King bell front for just about anything else (especially inside oom pah and Dixieland music). I have absoletely no need for another key instrument. My EEb horns give me all the range I need. I would rather have several affordable horns than one Cerveny.
