Yep, that's what I mean't. REALLY read treble clef.

Besides having 95% of all serious music now available to fool around with on the tuba, there are all sorts of tricks that you can do with transposition, if you wish, because you can pretend like treble clef is bass clef, bass clef is treble clef, pretend like you are playing a Bb instrument when playing a C instrument, or F or Eb. There are so many combinations of the four sets of tuba fingerings and the two clefs that you can just about always find a combination to "plug in" for a given transposition task.
