One of my teachers told me about a small organ in Switzerland
tuned in meantone, which had electrically-operated levers shading the
tops of pipes to change their pitch in combination with certain keys --
to change Eb to D#, etc. He said it worked very well. But
I'd imagine this would be impractical in a very large organ with many
pipes.

Does anyone know of any contrabass trombones (that even might be
for sale) other than the new Miraphones and the old Conn that Roger
Bobo had? Did all of the "big" companies of yesteryear make a
contrabass model?
Best Regards,
Steven, who's playing more and more tuba.

Not that I'd know if it's best.

Hi everyone-
Is there an old Conn contra for sale somewhere? Can someone
point me to it?
