Sarah,
I was just at Osmun today in Arlington, Mass. They had 4 tuba for sale, all used. Two were awaiting overhaul a nice Mirafone BBb (186-4u) and an Alex BBb, both of these were very nice, but the Alex had a few weird intonation tendencies. Suprisingly for me, they had, IMO, a very nice Yamaha 4 rotary valve BBb (YBB-641 if I remember) and it played very well. You might want to give them a call.
for what its worth
