The Wessex BBb Junior Tuba ‘Imp’ is a masterclass in ergonomic design, specifically engineered to remove the physical barriers that often discourage younger players from starting the tuba.

This 3/4 size bbb junior tuba is exceptionally lightweight at just 14lb, yet it retains a full, resonant tonal core that defies its compact frame. 

For music schools and parents seeking a high-quality student tuba, the ‘Imp’ offers a gold brass leadpipe for a warm response and stainless steel valves with silent nylon guides for smooth, reliable action. 

Standing at just 32.5” tall, it allows for a natural playing position that reduces fatigue during long rehearsals.

The instrument is further protected by a hardened bell for enhanced projection and arrives in a rugged, wheelable ABS case designed to survive the daily commute to the band room.

NOTE: This tuba is highly recommended for students and amateur players that can no longer handle full size tuba!
