Gronitz tubas in any key or size, GREAT value for the money,
amazingly the very limited supply of them (only 5-10 made
per year total in all sizes and keys) hasn't driven prices
through the roof (yet)
As far as euph and blare-o-tones, unless the under-1K Werils
are in every way the equal of the horns they copy, I don't think
there are ANY good "values" out there in the small horn market.
It is ludicrous that the Yamaha Euphs cost as much as a hand-finished
full-sized european tuba, but I guess the market is willing to bear it!
