A gorgeous survivor!

I have used a Bonna case for years now, never had a problem.
One well made tough case.
DG
Yes.

A great performance by all.
What euph is the other player using, Rick?
Dennis
Composers like confuse players, less so it is the transcribers.
Dennis
I never liked the thumb trigger found on most euphs.
I and Dan Oberloh designed this alternative on my Besson.
It operates via my 4&5 left fingers
These shots were taken before final finish...
Thanks for the link, Rick. Most enjoyable!

Thanks so much for all your time and effort to produce this!
I still get happy tears every time I hear/play that tune.

The Conn mellophone I had listed has sold locally.

How a quick data interruption while viewing an on-line video of a brass group sounds just like it is time to use your water keys...

I really like pretty horns! Nice engraving reminds me of fine coinage, but bigger.

He plays some sort of tuba in that awful Mayberry band.

Franz, I don't quite understand what you are referring to when you say the "C" horn can play bass clef parts without transposing.
Bb euphs play bass clef in concert pitch all the time, as the...
If volume was the only necessary thing with the euph nowadays, Nathan AirChime should make new ones.
We're gonna need bigger lungs...

It (the "C") does sound different, but that is good, in that it is a repro of an older design and does sound 'older'.
Different tools for different jobs.
Still, to me the Besson wins the...

Indeed, and many more!
