It's funny...when I first got my satin silver 56J, I got more compliments on how beautiful my new horn was than how I actually sounded on it. Granted, most of those comments were from non-tuba/low brass people. But, my fellow low-brassers knew why I really got the horn, because they complimented me many a time on how good I sounded on it. I must agree, I do find tubas to be very pleasing to look at. It's always been fascinating how many types, sizes and shapes of tubas there are. But, when purchasing a tuba I look for how it fits me as a player. When I find one that I happen to really like, it doesn't matter how it looks. It'll look great to me no matter what brand it is.
