I absolutely second (and concur with) DanN's remarks. Hear, hear.
Add a CC, and keep/vary/add-to your Eb "collection".
Why not (hypothetically) buy a CC and keep the two Eb's. Then, instead of eventually getting rid of them to buy an F tuba, buy a smaller, more 'F-like' (for lack of a better term) Eb tuba.....maybe the Rudy Meinl Eb?. I'd like to see Jay Bertolet's response, being an Eb player and all. In summing up, Pat Sheridan doesn't seem to struggle on his Besson Eb and Øystein Baadsvik sounds awesome with his Hirsbrunner Eb.....and then there was Fletch! You can achieve everything on an Eb that you can on an F.
