So now I have this 70 year old 4 rotor BBb Tuba, what oil is recommended & how do I maintain rotory valves? I've only ever used a piston rig before.
I used a Bach 18 mpc in school, right now the thing has a Conn mpc. Any recommendations for a guy on a pretty small budget? The Conn might be good for my son, it seems a little small for me. All the writing on the mpc is "Conn-Helleberg".
I found I had to trim my facial har back, it was really in the way!
