I agree. From the eight to ten MW horns I've played, the MW tubas seem more like they come off an assembly line. The character of the sound the horns give doesn't do anything. Yes, they play well and are nice horns, BUT compared to the Rudy horns they are inferior. I played the "new" Rudy compact 4/4 CC model you had at ITEC and the horn seemed to come alive in my hands. I could almost feel the horn resonate. The same could be said of the new piston model they have.

OK, in all that jabber, the Rudy tubas have more of a unique character to them.

From my experience,

Jason Harrell
