Try to find the main tuning slide :) funky!

For a Thein, that's cheap!

The MTS is the topmost, rightmost slide. It can be operated with the left hand as with a Marzan.

Pretty neat ive never seen one of these before

Wow, that tuba has more twists and turns than my lesson plan!

Wonder how that long long leadpipe affects response?

The interesting thing here is that the leadpipe enters the 4th valve, "the music goes 'round and around, whoa-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho, and it comes out" of the top of the 5th valve. Seeing as how the 1st and 2nd valves are used most often, I wonder what that might be like.

The stuff pictured here is very expensive:
* Brand new, that tuba probably costs around $35k
* Each of the two mouthpieces are probably $400 or so
* the Kariso case is probably another $1,000

Adding in the taxes and current tariffs, Gemini tells me:

That is, Gemini from American Gladiators, tells me: wrote:
The brand new cost of all this stuff would be somewhere around $46k to $50k.

Wow! I think I'll stick with used B&S F tubas!

Cool. I’m happy with a Symphonie, but this looks fascinating.

If someone's not happy with a Symphonie we need to question their sanity!

It does look interesting, though!
