How are these horns? do they play in tune? sound? I don't see too many people use these tubas today, are they "out of date"?
I am about to have on loan for me to try out, it has only 4 valves, made in 197X, also, what is a fair price for this horn if I were to make an offer?
I am also considering the Miraphone 186, 188, and B&S Perantucci tubas, perhaps a Rudy.
What other good 4/4 CC tubas should I consider?
thanks a bunch
Tim
