Jupiter JCB-378L 3 Piston 3/4 Tuba

Tuba: The lowest frequency musical instrument in the wind instrument family. As with all brass instruments, the sound is produced by lip vibration or a buzzing into a mouthpiece. It first appeared in the mid-19th century and has since become one of the newer instruments in the modern orchestra or concert band. The tuba has largely replaced the ophicleide. Tuba means "trumpet" in Latin. A person who plays the tuba is called a tubaist or tubist or simply a tuba player. They are known as bassists in British or military bands. The tuba has a conical bore and the bore diameter increases as a function of the length of the tube from the mouthpiece to the bell. The conical bore causes the dominance of the instrument's even-order harmonics to increase. The Jupiter JCB-378L 3-Piston 3/4 Tuba aims to offer the highest performance and best comfort to users of all levels. All Jupiter tubas, which come in compact and standard sizes, have detachable piston sections. In terms of structure, it has 0.661" bore, 14.4" bell dimensions. It also comes with a hard plastic carrying case with wheels, which is both comfortable and safe.
