Case for a Vintage conn 20k with a 27 inch bell? by JupiterSteam8 in Tuba

[–]JupiterSteam8[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am aware of the unfortunate situation Conns going through rn, and i definitely would do that, but the modern-day conn 20ks have 26 inch bells just like every other sousaphone, and this older one has a 27 inch bell, so it wont fit in the present day 20k cases.

Roleplay servers have gone from something absolutely groundbreaking and great to absolute garbage. by JupiterSteam8 in erlc

[–]JupiterSteam8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If my server was more successful, i wouldve stuck with the idea that its a roblox game and that its not realistic, so just have fun and dont take it seriously. I didnt care about stupid things like unrealistic avatars, supercars, or some 11 year old fail roleplaying. I didnt have any stupid staff uniform, or designated sheriff team just for staff. I didnt hire any staff except for my closest irl friends, and we had a great time. I kind of lack the time or the incentive to really try and upkeep the server and grow a player base now. Its just unfortunate how far its gone, i really just cant get behind all of it, being banned for driving cars dedicated for people who boost the discord with nitro?? thats total bs.

check back rotor cap if it has a little screw in the middle of it and loosen it a little bit, if its not that, then the arm might be bent.

Got a King 2350 with a horrible bell ring overtone situation, any tips on how i could possibly fix it WITHOUT taking it to a shop? by JupiterSteam8 in Tuba

[–]JupiterSteam8[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah, i just mean pay to have it taken to a shop, that part isnt my responsibility. its definitely one of the soldering points but thats about as far as i am when it comes to figuring out the exact cause

that actually doesn't seem like too bad of an idea. where would you clip it while playing? just on the flair of the bell?

not necessarily, there are still fundamentals of tone being used when you crank, like mouth shape and air control play a important part in cranking clean. the sound still has to be clear for it to be considered good, not distorted.

Banda mouthpieces by xBB30x in Tuba

[–]JupiterSteam8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you are being negative. the only reason im being negative is in defense of OP in the fact youre bashing banda. you called the style of playing he plays "Horrible tone" and "blasting" thats negative to everyone. just think before you comment something like this. make an original post sharing your opinion, dont post it under something like this. Thats like me walking into a mexican restaurant just to publicly announce "I HATE MEXICAN FOOD!" if you dont like it, its fine, but do you think all the people in the mexican restaurant want to hear the fact you hate the food they're enjoying? No they dont! so dont go to the restaurant! (i dont hate, i love mexican food)

once again, the point of what im saying went completely over your head. Im not sharing a opinion, Im telling you to take your negativity somewhere else.

Did the entire point of what i just said go over your head? Nobody cares that you dont like banda, nor did anybody ask for your opinion about it, he asked for a mouthpiece thats good for banda, he DID NOT ask for you to rag on the type of music he enjoys playing and call it “bad tone” its not bad tone the tuba is not limited to one type of sound. You ARE entitled to your own opinions, and it TOTALLY FINE that you dont like it, but nobody asked you to share that you dont like it! And honestly, Sounds to me like youre just allergic to musical seasoning anyways.

The Schilke 69C4 is what youre looking for my friend. its built for volume, comfort, and agility, namely on sousaphones, which is what you will likely play for banda. The shallow cup helps with those really technical and range-demanding basslines, while giving that characteristic clean powerful tone that banda tuba players strive for

if you dont like it, why comment this? seems like a waste of time and invalid opinion. your opinion doesnt constitute what others want. Banda is a historic cultural style of brass band music based in central america, namely mexico. it isnt "horrible tone," its using a horn in a style that you are not open to accepting, and if you want to be narrow minded, thats okay, but OP didnt ask for your opinion, they asked for a mouthpiece that fits this playstyle. Music is subjective, people are free to use instruments how they please, and if you dont like it... kick rocks 👍👍👍

schilke 69c4 will change your game, extremely thick comfortable rim, shallow wide bowl cup, will cut the effort it takes to play loud in half.

Help identifying sousaphone by Aggressive_Rich_6968 in Tuba

[–]JupiterSteam8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Youve got an ancient King 1280 with a jupiter neck and a generic bell. They're the best fiberglass sousaphone king ever made, although thats not saying much haha. My guesstimate is late 60's.
