Has anyone out there found or does anyone own a Tourville tuba made in Paris? A few years back I found an Eb horn by this manufacturer and it was gorgeous except for one important detail...it was missing all three valves and the leedpipe. It was written up in the Tuba Journal a few years back with a picture of one in a museum.It was unusual in the fact that it had a .800 bore size. It would be nice if I could get my hands on one so please, if anyone has a leed or has some experience with this horn let me know. tubatrek(AT)webtv.net
