Hello! First off it's amazing to see an old school style forum still alive and active on the internet now days. I just joined your forum hoping to get some help and inspiration as I pick up the euphonium again. Full disclosure I'm a horn player.
But I played euph as a kid. I'm picking it back up to help teach a new brass player. Music lessons are harder now in the days of quarantine and recently a coworker asked if I could teach his daughter since we're in the same city but work from home. He figured that since I play brass and have a master's degree in performance I'd be able. Since I'm also working from home I'm pretty low risk. Also, I love teaching!
I never owned a euph as a kid, it was borrowed from the school district. But my partner's family owns one and so I'm borrowing theirs (Elkhart Conn, no mouthpiece, hasn't been played in years). I found the forum while trying to identify the instrument and find a suitable mouthpiece. I saw David Werden's posts on serial numbers and mouth piece sizes.
Here's my question...Is this board a suitable place to post the photos, serial number, and measurement in an attempt to solidly identify the instrument and find a suitable mouthpiece? Nice to meet you all.
