Wessex C Tuba Anton TC491N

The Wessex Anton TC491N Nickel-Plated C Tuba is a robust and highly resistant alternative within the Anton series, designed for musicians who need an instrument capable of withstanding heavy use without losing stability or tuning precision. Its nickel-plated finish provides a focused tone, quick response, and defined articulation, ideal for semi-professional bands and ensembles with a strong sound presence.

The 450 mm bell offers broad resonance with a more direct sound compared to the lacquered version, while the nickel-plating adds a firmer and clearer sound character. This makes it a particularly useful option for repertoires where the low base needs to be precise and well-defined. The alpaca leadpipe ensures a stable air intake, improving the initial response even in soft dynamics.

The 5-cylinder system provides ample tonal flexibility, allowing precise tuning and secure control over the low register. The progressive inner diameter of 20–21 mm facilitates a uniform airflow, contributing to a balanced emission across the entire range. The removable Wessex Z valves ensure a reliable mechanism and easy maintenance, even for frequent players.
