Joke: Q: How do all the oceans say hello to each other? A: They wave! Hahahahahaha

agreed. Very similar to this saxhorn basse that you can still purchase from Couesnon...

Agreed. Saxhorn.

Okay I understand now. Can’t check the one on Facebook cause I don’t do FB.

Welcome to the forum! I would guess that is a Saxhorn, and from its shape I'd say the sound would be more euphonium-like. It is almost surely not...

Very true!

In my experience, once I have my mind set on something, nothing else will truly satisfy me. In hindsight, the other options would have been...

Im wondering if that 5000 might satisfy my craving for the large Euph Ive been looking for all this time.? I know the bell is smaller but the bore...

Greetings, Sorry for the confusion. The horn from https://www.musicgoroundduluthga.com...BoCOZEQAvD_BwE Appears to be a 5000 whereas, the...

So is the seller claiming that the horn is indeed an M5050 in spite of its badging? Maybe early model badging was different, not sure. Regarding the...

Thanks to all and keep the suggestions rolling in please! I contacted that seller. Great guy, real friendly and made time to tell me about a few...

Good point. On the other hand, trombone players often have at least a couple of horns pitched in Bb and used for difference purposes (band,...

How about this one? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Denis-Wick-DW5513-Euphonium-Straight-Mute/302859617196 Shipping is free.

A number of years ago, I read an article by the trombone player Tom Gibson. He had judged am trombone audition for a pro orchestra and had ...

Well, I have one idea on the matter. With euphonium, we're taking about bore size, bell size, etc., always on a horn pitched in B-flat. For me, the...

It's interesting (as Dave's last posting illustrates) that euphonium players tend to think of finding "the horn", while conceding that some horns are...

There are better ways, but there are always trade-offs. Biometric login is relatively secure and I don't think can be "hacked" in any normal way....

You raise some good points. Underlying this discussion is the constant quest for larger and larger horns/mouthpieces/sounds. The trend MAY be calming...

So here we are, five months later. What I want to know, Bman94, is what horn did you get with your "frivolous purchase" ? You were asking if...

You might hire the Presidential Salute Battery (PSB) from the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard), who provide the real cannons and authentic...

Yes, I do the copy and paste, also. I'm actually a technically savvy sort (M.S. in Computer Science and a bunch of years at HP after my Army...

That appears to be a Miraphone gig bag. It’s actually what I use thanks to Rick’s feedback. EDIT: Oddly, another search turned up the actual...

I don’t know where to find a list of Miraphone serial numbers to model numbers - sorry. Demondrae Thurman helped develope the M5050. Don’t know all...
