| Monel pistons |
Monel pistons are resistant to corrosion and are an ideal choice for professional baritone pistons which must retain precise fit and smooth action over many years. |
| Hand-lapped pistons |
Hand-lapping is a time-consuming finishing process which results in superior valve fit for noiseless, responsive action and easy tone changes. |
| Hand-lapped slides |
Hand-lapping achieves the perfect balance between airtightness and smooth action. |
| Excellent projection |
| The rich sound of the YCB-822 is sure to come through the ensemble. |
| Response and intonation |
The most complex passages are easier to facilitate with the faultless response and intonation found in the YCB-822. |
| Leadpipe |
The nickel-silver leadpipe helps players obtain an exquisite sound while the leadpipe's dimensions and taper offer superior intonation and response. |
| Bell |
The large bell size on the YCB-822 creates a warm sound with impressive power. |
| Slide positioning |
| All five valve slides face upward for easy access and adjustment. |
| Available feature |
| The YCB-822 tuba is available with a silver-plated finish. |
