Yeah, I emailed him and agreed to buy it and then he went silent. Something seemed off there.

Re: known, yet-under-known and under-rated players

There are a lot of orchestral players that are probably just as good as the "big 5" guys but aren't as well known. Steve Campbell (Minnesota), Craig Knox (Pittsburgh), Randy Montgomery (Milwaukee) are three that come to mind.

Backbore effect on intonation?

I have read that the backbore size on a mouthpiece can alter the intonation on trumpets . Does this apply to tuba mouthpieces as well? I have used a Elliott 2 backbore and a 5 backbore and couldn't notice any difference they were having on intonation. What are your experiences with this? Link: https ...

Re: Ebay: HB2 for $7K

Very surprised that that supposed David Fedderly quote in the comments section is calling that a HB6: HB6 for sure, a very popular 4/4 5V CC tuba used by most professionals (Floyd Cooley played this model extensively with San Francisco) in the late 1970's and 1980's. We understand that the ...

Oil viscoscities

I see valve oils with varying viscosities like "regular, light, thin, vintage, rotor". I have pretty much have only used traditional Al Cass oil (no smell to it and that's why I like it) and am wondering if this is considered a light oil or a regular oil? Can someone with more experience with brass ...

Re: I'm becoming more like a community band nerd.

I no longer carry an "emergency" mouthpiece. I've never needed it and - if I forget my mouthpiece - its REALLY time to hang it up
This made me laugh but still not as bad as forgetting the tuba.

Re: FS/FT Harvey Philips Bb and CC tubas

Hello, I don't think you listed your email. Question about the BBb as Roger Lewis on "the other forum" had this quote about this instrument: "on the BBb model there was a miscalculation on the length of the 3rd valve slide causing those notes using that valve to be flat. Holton was very quick to re ...

When a bass trombone plays the tuba part in quintet

I can't be the only one who thinks this would sound so much better with a tuba playing and not a bass trombone barking on the bottom. :facepalm2:

Re: almost impossible to program too often

Some jump to mind:
Brahms Sym 1
Kalinnikov Sym 1
Bizet Sym in C major
Pulcinella Suite
Dvorak 6

Some symphonies jump to mind that are played way too often: Dvorak 9, Tchaik 4, Beethoven 5/7

I have an R4 shank that I don't imagine is much different than the R5.
