  3. Boosey & Hawkes Imperial Euphonium on eBay

    Here's an eBay sale of a euphonium listed under tuba. It could be a deal, but it looks like there's quite a bit of repair work needed (and cleaning).

    The Adams with the G-flat attachment is interesting. I assume that the G-flat attachment and the fourth valve would produce a low D. Then the following fingerings for the rest of the low notes,...

    Hi Rick, Micah,

    I'm still playing on my black lacquer Hirsbrunner. I'm not sure if there's anything different or special about it versus a standard silver plated version. It's a 479 Exclusive...

    I was just telling a student about these. I'm sorry to hear they are no longer being made. Perhaps one could be manufactured by a skilled repair tech?

    Hi Dave,

    Nice comparison videos. I think I prefer the DC3 better than the 4AL. There seems to be just a bit more presence and clarity with the DC3. Will you be doing a video of the DC3 and DC4?

    Hi Rick,

    Thanks for the kind words. It was nice meeting you too! That doesn't seem so long ago, but it was. Surely that's a sign I'm getting old. I hope you're doing well!

    Barry,
