They are definitely VMI 2103's with the Schmidt label. This has been confirmed before.

To the fellow who suggested that VMI's were relabeled B&S's, I would suggest that it is the other way around. VMI is the company that makes B&S tubas. Of course, VMI is owned by TA-Musik, the parent company of Meinl-Weston, so it's hard to say what anything is anymore. But B&S and VMI come out of the same factory.
