This 4/4 tuba would work for a good 4-valve beginner horn at the elementary and middle school level. Would also work as a good small tuba for an older person looking for a lighter horn to play with a quintet, small group or Dixie.
The AVT 272A features a .490" bore for easy tone production, a 7" yellow brass bell for a big sound, and stainless steel piston valves for worry-free performance.
