I have a close friend who smuggled a tuba into Cuba from America. No kidding! I'm not certain of the logistics of it, but he somehow packaged the tuba in a large wooden crate filled otherwise with his clothing. I, however, am not alluding to the idea that this is the norm, but it has been done. I also know that my friend was having to play on a beat-to-crap Rudy Meinl BB flat prior to his visit to the states. He said that it had been given to him by his teacher.
