Wessex Bb Tuba Grand TB692P-S 6/4

The Silver-plated Wessex Grand 6/4 Bb Tuba TB692S is designed to offer a very defined projection and a brighter timbre than the lacquered version, making it an excellent choice for musicians seeking clarity in the mix and a broad sound that stands out without losing control. Its 6/4 construction provides a powerful and stable low register, maintaining a consistent response across all dynamics.

The 508 mm bell and the silver-plated finish favor more precise articulation and a more intense frontal projection. The body is made of 0.9 mm 70/30 brass with a hardened bell and nickel reinforcements, ensuring durability and structural stability even in demanding repertoires. The design developed by Chuck Nickles provides a notable balance between power, control, and ease of emission.

The vented stainless steel pistons allow for clean legato and quick, reliable action, facilitating the execution of technical passages. It is an ideal instrument for both symphonic band and orchestra, especially in situations where the tuba needs to maintain presence and definition in the ensemble.
