Horizontal Playing Design
In comparison to conventional tubas, this marching instrument features a bell that faces directly in front of the performer. This is ideal for outside playing, meaning that the sound source can be directed towards the audience instead of straight up in to the air. The adjustable leadpipe allows it to be played on the left shoulder while still providing a comfortable and ergonomic playing style.
Lightweight Instrument
The aim of a marching instrument is to provide lots of volume but keep the instrument lightweight. This has been accomplished with the Gear4music marching tuba. While the conventional instrument is very heavy, the marching tuba features a 3 valve non-compensating system, which results in a lighter instrument that is easier to use over long periods of time. Playing quality is not compromised with this tuba, as it still packs a real punch, particularly at louder dynamics.
