The development of the new York Preference EEb tuba 3080 is based on the successful EEb tuba 3082. The instrument comes with a smaller bell (17”) and has an optimized lead pipe position. The 3080 tuba also produces a rich and warm sound and combines a well centered tone with an excellent response. The slightly more centered tone makes it a perfect choice for soloists as well as for brass ensemble players. The new EEb tuba 3080 is manufactured with the original tools of the world famous English brass manufacturer.
