I have a tuba that was called "rose" brass when I bought it, but someone else called it "gold" brass. I think that red and rose brass are just different terms for the same thing. I saw a Miraphone 191 in "gold" brass that looked almost the same color as my "rose" brass horn. This leads me to believe that all of these terms are used interchangeably.

My wife refers to my rose horn as the "pretty pink tuba." It's almost enough to make me want to replace it.
