Introducing the John Packer JP278 intermediate BBb tuba outfit

The JP278 is a full size BBb tuba made entirely from yellow brass. It’s got 4 waterkeys, a 4 valve compensating system, and a 19" bell with a strengthening ring. It also has a low level lead pipe, which is particularly good for shorter players.

This cost effective and high performing instrument has become popular with professionals who need a reliable backup instrument, as well as students looking for an affordable upgrade. It’s perfect for players looking for a more mature sound and is suitable for both small ensemble work and large orchestral projects.


Quality sound and construction

This versatile and reliable tuba is made from high grade 80:20 brass. It’s got durable valve guides, which ensure a smooth action, and an improved bell that provides a crisp projection. It’s also designed to make the playing experience as easy as possible. Overall, this tuba represents the perfect balance between performance and affordability, along with a fully compensating system that gives players access to a complete chromatic range.
