Identification of Hirsbrunner B Tuba Modell
Posted: Thu Nov 20, 2025 12:42 pm
Hi,
I have an older (end of 60-ties, early 70-ties) Hirsbrunner B Tuba 3 valve Compensated. Still with brass valves and not the „later“ plastic/composite rotors. The tube is 112 cm high (44“) and a bell diameter of 42,5 cm (16,7“), bore 19,5 mm (7,67“). Based on bore and bottom bow taper it is not the Modell 193 but looks very close.
I have not find any catalogues etc about this type of tuba. Could any of you perhaps identify this Hirsbrunner modell, or even has some old brochures, flyers or catalogs listing this model.
thx
Christoph
