Tuba in Bb Miraphone Hagen 497A 4-valve silver-plated

The Miraphone Hagen 497A Silver-Plated Bb Tuba is a large 6/4 model designed to provide a very structured response and clear projection in highly demanding orchestral contexts. It is aimed at performers who need a broad yet perfectly controlled low register.

The 480 mm bell, along with the silver-plated finish, promotes a more focused and defined sound, with excellent separation within the ensemble. This characteristic provides greater clarity in dense passages, maintaining a firm and stable low foundation.

The 4 rotary valves system, combined with a 21.2 mm bore diameter, offers a solid and homogeneous response. The ventilated pressure-compensating valves improve blowing comfort and help maintain precise tuning across the entire range. The spiral springs system ensures smooth and reliable operation.

The nickel silver leadpipe provides structural rigidity and contributes to a clear and controlled emission, especially important in an instrument of these dimensions. The 443 Hz reference tuning aligns with current professional standards. As a model without music stand hook or strap ring, it is clearly focused on orchestral use.
