Preface: I've never played one.

The reports I've seen seem to be mostly problems with intonation as being their main fault. Thin brass as part of a design is no fault if it's done right. As reported here today, Gronitzes have thin brass and I don't see anybody complaining about them as a result.

They are sold new in the U.S. by the Tuba Exchange (see shops page of this site).
