They are fun to play! I used to play one that belonged to the school where I student taught. It’s so little and easy to handle! I had to put it upon my knee to make the lead pipe high enough. Something like a .640 bore if I recall. I would to find one in better shape with the original cases. The tuba body had a rectangular case only a little bigger than a euphonium case and the bells went into a black “fiber” case that looked like it was for a drum.
