Pretty close--mine's in Eb, the one shown on the Orsi site's in BBb. Teeny bore (mine's 0.495"), tenor-shank mouthpiece. Plays a lot easier than you'd think (the low register takes a little practice) and very trombone-sounding. I could see how one of these would blend very nicely with a trombone choir.
