The EASTMAN USA EBC 836 S C Tuba is a magnificent replica of the legendary YORK C Tuba. Featuring a 6/4 size, this instrument offers remarkable versatility, suitable for symphony orchestras, brass bands, and smaller ensembles alike.
Crafted in the United States, this tuba embodies artisanal excellence and technical precision. Its high-quality 15-micron silver plating not only provides a refined aesthetic but also durable protection against oxidation.
The 20-inch (508 mm) yellow brass bell contributes to its rich and warm sound. Yellow brass is known for its exceptional resonance and optimal sound projection, allowing musicians to express themselves with great expressivity.
Equipped with 4 front-action pistons with a special bore for rapid action, this tuba offers precise response and unparalleled ease of play. The pistons ensure perfect sealing and smooth transition between notes, allowing musicians to express their musicality with ease.
The 5th valve is operated by a thumb-rotor, with a bore size of 0.85 inches (21.6 mm). This additional valve extends playing possibilities by offering access to extended ranges and complex interval combinations.
