The problem with Boosey and Hawkes instruments is that the same models are very different in intonation and sound. The best thing you can do is to go the factory, or contact some good British players and let them try some for you. My former teacher Patrick Harrild found a good silver sovereign for me. The best thing with the EEb sovereign is tha it is a good allround tuba. It is good for most solos, and has a certain weight in the orchestra. I can only recomend it.
