I don't remember if I posted this or not:

Just got some info from Herr Rudy Meinl, junior, re: their 5/4 Eb tuba (actually, all their tubas). Their product brochure doesn't have a photo of this horn, but he included some additional info in his letter. This is a 5V (all rotary) Eb tuba. Available in yellow or gold brass. A 2nd valve trigger is optional.

In his letter, he says the Eb tuba is very similar to the 5/4 F tuba. The specs he lists are: bell same as 5/4 F (43 cm / 16.93");
bore size: valve 1: 20mm (.787"), valves 2-5: 21mm (.827");
"from bell to main tuning slide very similar to the 5/4 F";
"long leadpipe".

One individual who has posted on tubaeuph that he might be importing one of these for resale in the next few months is Lee A. Stofer, Jr. in Atlanta Georgia. You can contact Lee at: tubameister1(AT)juno.com

Tell him Steve Inman sent you.
