Now that my youngest has joined the low brass cult... we decided to do tubas for our New Years Card.
My wife grabbed her Eb sousa, my son is on his 186, and my youngest has her 1946 York euphonium/baritone. I grabbed the 20J because I can't let my son have a bigger tuba than me.

Even seated, you almost need a back brace or a harness to handle a 20J.
It's not that bad. There photographer kept having me to shift into different positions. When playing it is actually a pretty comfortable tuba.
