You are a wonderful daddy and I hope your daughter appreciates what you are doing for her. All of us who started on school tubas and $10 junkers bow to you and your concern for her sensibilities. I salute you. One small caution, the mouthpiece furnished with the Weril is of far lesser quality than the horn and deters me (a pro with 53 years of playing experience) from make a decent tone. Consider a Conn 7B for the horn or a Conn 2. Of course, you may already own a good mouthpiece and this message can be ignored. A big pat on the back to a concerned parent, YOU!
