Your Jay friend may have been playing the school's instrument...or since that instrument was so universally hated by that school, who knows, it may have been suggested that the tuba needed to not be there, anymore (??).
Yes, the Mickey Rooney-sized compensating ones with the 1960's style engraving, and familiar (ala old Besson euphonitones) double-trapezoid fingerbuttons, #4 "keeper", etc.
Like I said, It would be a great tuba just to keep in the trunk of your car - next to the spare, etc.
