My Christmas,... A month Early!

November 29, 2007 19:55

Christmas this year, for me atleast, has come a month early. Today I recieved my christmas present for probably the next several years. My present came in the form of a tuba, The Dalyan Apollo CC 4/4 tuba. I was a little worried because this is a key I usually don't play in, meaning different fingerings, but it is actually really really easy to transition.

I ordered a "B Stock" to save some money (it was actually 50% off and still cost thousands), assuming that it would some with a dent or a scratch, but I cannot find one! I am so Pleased!

Here are some pictures of me and my "baby":


As you can see, it is a major upgrade from my school's BBb tuba (on the left!)
