Sorry, but I couldn't keep my list below 6 horns. There are many others I would really like to try out and keep around but this group would allow me to do everything I need to do.

1) Nirschl York Copy CC

2) Either one of Chuck Daellenbach's tricked-out YCB-621 (with an added 5th valve for me) or a really tasty Miraphone 184 CC (modified 5th valve to a long whole step) to use as a quintet horn.

3) Willson Eb

4) A small Eb, like my Cerveny 641 only better. Perhaps a Yamaha YEB-621 (which they don't make. Yet.)

5) Either a true Alexander Tenor Tuba or this one Hirsbrunner Euphonium I played once that was made especially for one of the Marine Band guys with an oversized leadpipe.

6) A really good cimbasso, though I'm not positive yet of which model fits that bill.

My opinion for what it's worth...
