Yamaha YBB-105 Standard 3-Valves BBb Tuba (Clear Lacquer Finish)

Lighter model makes this the ideal tuba for beginning players.

Hand-lapped slides

Hand-lapping achieves the perfect balance between airtightness and smooth action.

Precision brace design and placement

The design and placement of the braces ensures maximum durability as well as optimum tone.

Bore size

The .661" bore of the YBB-105 achieves the ideal balance between easy response and solid, authoritative sound.

Bell flare

The specially designed bell flare delivers outstanding projection with warm, rich tone.

Leadpipe taper

Faultless intonation and well-centered notes are the result of the extended taper on the leadpipe.
