Most French C Tubas have up to 6 valves and, if I remember correctly, have a much larger bore size. I played one at the 1986 TUBA conference in Austin and found it to be quite a different instrument than a euphonium. But, of course, since it was at the 1986 Conference (I don't remember them being called ITEC back then) this means my memory has faded and I am now realizing how extremely old I have become! Ouch!
