I've been thinking about getting a bigger F tuba. It will mean having to sell my Yamaha YFB-621, which I have had for over a decade and really don't want to. The MW45SLP has been my favorite, but I have not been able to try the new Getzen G60 F tuba yet. I was wondering if anyone out there has gotten to play both side by side and has any comments. Yes, I know they are very different horns. I liked the Getzen G50 CC, but thought its valveset was just a little too small. It probably works a lot better in the F, but I wondered what someone who played it had to say.

Thanks
