Hi fellow Twin Cities folk! I am just getting back into the tuba. I have purchased a Conn 21J from the fine folks at Leisure Time Music in Indiana and a mighty instrument it is. But, alas, I am a man and my eyes do tend to wander... I have never had the opportunity to sit with a four rotory valve BB tuba and would like to compare my three. I spoke to a knowlegeable repair person at a local brass repair place suggested I put a post here to see if anyone in the Minneapolis - Twin Cities Metro area is interested in letting a person experience a quality four or five valve BB or CC for a day or week. Could lead to a sale. Could lead to more use on a good instrument. Dont know. Please email me.
Thanks
