Has anyone out there played this particular Chicago Presence? Any feedback on it would be appreciated.

I have one that I use ALMOST as often as my YamaYork. If I am playing with a smaller bass and cello section, or we are doing movies with a mike in my bell, or in the pit, I play the Wessex. I also use it for trad jazz, and with the Peninsula Banjo Band (look it up). I play with the Monterey Pops. When we do an outdoor event, the Presence is my weapon of choice. I'd be delighted to talk to you about this tuba. Send me a PM with your phone number, and I'll call you.

I had one and really liked it. I had a prototype and it had some protoype-ish issues which is why I sold it. The smaller bell flare is a very interesting change for this style of horn.
