Dear Wana,

The range for the bass (EEb-F) and contrabass (BBb-CC) is for all practical purposes the SAME. The EEb/F tubas just do a few things a little EASIER in a higher range and the BBb/CC tubas do a few things a little EASIER in a lower range.

Again, trying to be practical, why not review the First Book of Practical Studies and/or the Second Book of Practical Studies (easy, but not "baby" easy), and just learn the F fingerings?

good luck and have fun,

-Joe
