Roger,
Thanks again for all the help on Monday.  The mouthpiece is working great.  
One question I though of as I was loading my borrowed horn into my van last night.  Is ther anywhere we can find the total height measurement of a tuba on the net?  For example, I know the Miraphone 189 I played has a 20 in bell, but how tall is it.  If it is over 45 inches, I will have trouble getting it in the back of my van.  Considering something I read about buying a tuba that you can take on a subway, it would be something that I need to consider when I revisit you to buy a horn.
Thanks again.  I will recommend you to anyone who want to buy a horn.
