At the NY Brass Conference a few weeks ago there was a used Melton "Spezial" CC tuba among the many instruments in the Dillon display. Superficially it appeared to be similar to a Yorkbrunner, but I thought it displayed the too-fat syndrome: big, fat sound but very funky and hard to center in the low register. I would be very interested in hearing about a detailed, side-by-side comparison between it and a Nirschl or a Yorkbrunner.
