In Reply to: New Minel Weston Piston F Tuba posted by Tim on February 10, 1999 at 14:54:17:
If you are talking about the new large F, then I played one at MidWest. It was the best F tuba I've ever played. The low end was rock solid, and the horn sounded really clean. The only note I wasn't too sure of was the high A flat. (The Bydlo note) Overall, I thought this was a great horn. The only drawback I could see was that the horn was too dark. I like my B&S because it has a different sound than my 4/4 CC. The B&S is a little brighter. If I had the money, I would by one of these MW in a second. I could learn to deal with making it brighter. My $.02...
