The recent posts regarding putting larger finger buttons on piston tubas got me thinking. If one puts larger buttons on a tuba so that one can "reach" them more comfortably, wouldn't that have the effect of causing one to not center their finger on the button? So, wouldn't putting larger finger buttons cause the tendency to use off-center pressure on the downstroke and cause premature valve wear?
