The valve on your tuba is not from a Getzen G-50--it is a Meinl Weston valve, close to .750 (whatever mm applies). It sounded "small" to me, so I asked Mr. Rusk about it since I needed to ask him about another matter. He says this is one of the four best Holtons he has ever played--factory or altered by himself.
