My friends and I did a promotion for Vanguard microphones.
The tune was written by Charlie Gurke, the bari player.
Enjoy!

nice playing, interesting tune, lovely tuba

Martin 6/4 tubas sometimes make me wish that I would allow myself to own a few tubas "just to have".

Sounds great!

Lee Stofer seems to love the one he's been using for a little while now. Great sound and the moderate bore size doesn't suck the air out of your lungs.

Still wish that I could have bought Lenny Jung's front action Martin BBb, but it was nice to see it at the Simonetti museum. And Vince was truly happy to have it, so that was nice to see.

bloke: It's a damn shame that the better-and-playing-condition of those instruments are sitting in a mostly-closed-up room collecting cobwebs.
response: Hey bloke, you didn't buy them.
bloke: B.S. Dozens of people would be eager to, and at market value.

Nice work. Yep, love those Martins. What a great sound and they have pretty solid intonation, especially for a 6/4.

Thanks for sharing!
