John Packer JP379B Sterling Bb Tuba
SKU: 102412
The JP379B Sterling Tuba is much like its larger brother, the JP379BB Sterling, but slightly smaller at 3/4 size rather than a full 4/4.
The JP379B is a high-quality instrument designed for professional players seeking a large bore, yet smaller and more compact tuba suitable for orchestral performances. This tuba also fits well in concert bands and wind bands, especially when the tuba part calls for a larger instrument.
Developed in collaboration with Paul Riggett of Sterling Brass, the JP379B combines professional-level Sterling components and design with the affordability and durability associated with the JP brand. Similar to its larger counterpart, the JP379BB Sterling, the JP379B is a 3/4 size instrument rather than a full 4/4 size.
