My euph. is a wilson and I love it. It plays great although some notes have tendancy to be sharp. I used to play a yamaha and the valves were good but once they were stuck it was hard to get them back into working condition.

My trombone is a King Trombone, made by... Con-Selmer I believe. O.o Whatever it is, it's hawt. heart

My euphonium... well, the school's one, was a Yamaha. Well, I was on some other old one, but they gave me a brand new Yamaha.

I hear good things about the Willson euphs. It's cool that you have one. Yamaha's euphs are actually pretty sweet. I don't really dig compensating systems in general, though (as many "professional" euphs have them). The horn is dark enough on it's own. I don't need any professional" system to further muzzle it up.

The Conn-Selmer/King/Benge etc. brands are now under the UMI name, and have gone the way of mass-production. Unless you have an older horn under those names, they are all under one roof.

Every horn player and their mother loves the Conn horns. I have very little experience with these, though, so I can't say anything as far as pre- and post-UMI quality.


My main tuba now is a Yamaha YCB-611 C tuba. I am borrowing it from my tuba teacher, but I am very close to buying my own horn. It is an AMAZING horn, and it sucks that they don't produce these anymore. ):

I played afew trombones.

#1: A Bundy: It wasn't great, it had dents and rust everywhere.

#2:Yamaha: I personally don't like Yamaha's, and the mouthpiece didn't fit.

#3:Getzen: It was good..But I have thoughts of it being an Alto, not a Tenor. o___o And it had blue rust on it too. o_o

#4:Cecillio. It died. R.I.P Cheap trombone. My dad bought me it for $125.. .____.

#5: C.G CONN: I <3 it! It may have LOTS of dents..But it's a trooper and hasn't died...Yet. <3

My "professional" trumpet is a Bach Stradivarius which I got back in 2003. Apparently, from some random trumpet players I've talked to, Strads have gone down in quality in recent years... but maybe they're just making that up, or something.

Even if my trumpet is of some value, I can never give it up because of my marching band memories. (sounds silly, but you would have had to have been in my marching band, specifically the two years I was in it.)

My other trumpet is some Yamaha. It was my starter.

My real trombone is a Conn with an F attachment that my dad gave me. ( if you din't know what an F attachment is, P.M. me). My real one is being weird right now though. So I have to use a normal Conn trombone.
