If the sound of the Miraphone 186 has the sound you're looking for, go for it. Just be careful that you don't stereotype all BBb's and all CC's because you like your Miraphone 186 better than Dynasty BBb marching tubas, Contrabass Bugles and assorted Miraphone BBb's.

You know, my tuba teacher in high school (who taught band at a nearby town) happened to play on a CC. He said that he regretted buying the horn because a BBb tuba made much more sense for a high school educator because the BBb tuba fit better with the keys of the instruments he was teaching. I'm not saying you shouldn't get a CC, but it's another thing to think about.
