This tuba sounds wonderful and is easy to play. We recently had a local professional try it (while they were here getting an Adams F tuba) and they were impressed! Easy response, quick rotors, and consistent tone in all registers was the report back!
This TMEA demo is barely used but does show signs of testing. Save a TON off the new price today! Continental US orders only.
What John Packer says:
The JP379FF is suitable for any pro player looking for a slightly smaller bass tuba to work in lighter orchestral projects and ensemble/chamber groups. This tuba sings in the upper register and really speaks in the lower register making this an all round fantastic instrument. Created in collaboration with Paul Riggett of Sterling Brass, the JP379 represents a fusion of professional level Sterling components and design with the affordability and durability normally associated with the JP brand.
