I owned one for almost two years. It was my first personal tuba in high school. I didn't like it from the get-go. I agree with what the folks here have already said about its construction(metal quality,valves,poor plating,etc.). I think the only good use for this horn is for someone who can't afford anything else OR a high school/jr high program who needs some cheap horns to have(I came from a situation like the latter).

Now that's just my take on this horn. I was fed a bunch of c--p about how good the thing was and it wasn't. That's a ploy by businessmen to get yours and my money. I've been there and done that and this is the way it turned out for me.

Good Luck,

Jason
