I've owned many tubas in all keys over the past 30 years. I was playing exclusively on a Kalison DS for the past 9 years. I decided I wanted something a bit smaller, still in CC, as an all around tuba. I played the Conn 52J's at Dillon and immediately fell in love with the sound. So, I traded in my Kalison and now own a Conn. I've owned it for a few months now and I've used it in concert bands, brass quintets, tuba quartets, dixieland trio, and solo. I've loved playing the horn except for the fact that the low C is flat. Does anybody else own a 52J and what do you think about it?
