As to the Wiener tuba. This is identical and I meant to reply before. I played an Alexander F, Vienna style for 25 years--Vaughan Williams, Broughton you name it. Since I learned on this, with 1, 2, and 3 in the left hand and 4, (flat 1&2) 5 (flat 2) and 6 (4th valve equivalent) in the right hand it was ok. I did sell this a couple of years ago to Floyd and it was re-assembled and sold to a player in Japan. I do have the old fingering charts, the German article from "Clarino" etc. and years of experience--good ones with that system if anyone wants to pick my brain
