"Are they good horns?
very overpriced for what they sell for new
"do they sound ok?
I liked the sound of the two or three I've been close to
"are they easy to play?
no easier than others, but when the various moving parts start to act up (and they DO act up) .... OR when plating, joints, braces, break down, or they start to corrode a year after you buy one, such things to me do not sound easy to contend with. Even if I was given a horn free if such nonsense happened it'd piss me off.
Are they good quality?
I work in a field whey the Q word is my stock in trade.
I would not use this word to describe the Petersberg tubas I have seen.
"i am interested to hear what everyone has to say."
f.w.i.w.
