Jim Laabs still lists one a different brand of travel tuba. Dunno much more than that.

These are the funny looking ones with the tubes running from side to side in the front? There is a vendor in Germany but shipping would be a fortune.

Re: Where to buy ZO travel tubas in US
what key do you want it to be in? I might know someone that has one and could be talked into departing with it
My opinion, those horns look like a hot mess but actually play pretty good. A lot of fun in a small package

They were conspicuously missing from the Army Conference this year.
I played them before, they sound OK but ergonomics are bizarre.

Re: Where to buy ZO travel tubas in US
Thank y’all for your posts. I’ve known about Thomann, but the idea of paying VAT and shipping costs greatly discouraged me. I’m still interested in the Wessex bubbie 5, but the ZO offers a 5 valve cc travel tuba that perked my interests.
I also don’t own an F tuba, just a Bruckner and enough space in my home for a shoe box. (Not literally, but 600^2’ for one tuba man, two cats and a plant lady is not enough space for two full sized tubas)
EDIT: I should that I never inquired to Thomann about the costs because I am lazy.
