{"product_id":"melton-f-tuba-4250-l-tradition-5rh-klarlackiert-inkl-gigbag","title":"Melton F Tuba 4250-L Tradition (5RH), Clear Lacquered, incl. Gig Bag","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 4250 “Tradition” is Melton Meinl Weston's large orchestral F tuba. The slim body is elaborately made from sheet-cut brass and deliberately built light – at around 7.5 kg it is comfortable to hold for a 6\/4 F tuba. In terms of sound you get a sonorous, sustaining low end and a brilliant upper register, plus very easy response. Even in fast passages the notes stay cleanly separated – exactly what you need in the orchestra, in solo work and in chamber music.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis version (5RH) has five rotary valves, all operated with the right hand: four finger valves plus the 5th valve via the right thumb. Your left hand stays free for the trigger on the 2nd valve slide, which lets you correct intonation while playing. The bore grows from 19.5 mm to 21.5 mm at the 4th and 5th valves, giving the low register more air and stability. The action runs on 3B ball linkages, and the inner and outer slides are nickel silver. The 4250 is made in Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eF tuba, 6\/4 size, lightweight construction, body made from sheet-cut brass\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e5 rotary valves, all right-hand (5RH), 3B ball linkages\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eBore 19.5 mm (valves 1–3) \/ 21.5 mm (valves 4 and 5)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eBrass bell, Ø 378 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eTrigger on 2nd valve slide\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eNickel silver inner and outer slides\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eHeight 919 mm, weight approx. 7.5 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eFinish: clear lacquer\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eIncluded: gig bag\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery instrument passes through my master workshop before shipping: valves, slides and airtightness are checked, so you can start playing right away.
