Tuba in Bb Miraphone Hagen 497A 4 valves lacquered

The Miraphone Hagen 497A Bb Tuba is a large 6/4 model developed to provide a wide sound foundation and a strong presence in large-scale orchestral contexts. It maintains the Hagen concept but with a clearly superior projection and volume compared to the 5/4 models.

The 480 mm bell provides an expansive and enveloping sound, with a deep and well-supported bass. This design favors a great sound amplitude, ideal for symphonic repertoire where the tuba must sustain large orchestral masses without losing stability.

The 4 rotary valves system, along with a 21.2 mm bore diameter, offers a solid response and stable tuning. The ventilated pressure compensating valves improve blowing comfort and contribute to greater homogeneity throughout the range. The spiral spring system ensures reliable and precise operation.

The nickel silver leadpipe provides structural rigidity and clarity in sound production, helping to maintain definition within such a large format. The reference tuning at 443 Hz meets current professional standards. As it is a model without lyre holder or strap ring, it is clearly oriented towards orchestral use.
