'New' stock available: click here.

Products marked as 'ex-demo' are offered at a reduced price because they have been used for inspection, demonstration or marketing purposes by the manufacturer or seller. They are not factory-sealed, but are sold 'as new' and are subject to a full mechanical warranty. In some cases they may have a limited cosmetic warranty. Item-specific condition reports are always available.

The Mentor is a more recent addition to the Geneva range, following in the footsteps of the Symphony and Cardinal series. The focus of the series is function rather than decoration, with ornamental features minimised to offer the sonic characteristics of its Geneva stable-mates but at a lower price.

The E-flat bass tuba is a compact lightweight four-valve model, ideal for marching as it is fitted with carriage rings, but also perfect for younger or more elderly players requiring a professional instrument of manageable size and weight.
