Wessex "Wyvern" 5/4 CC Contrabass Orchestral Tuba Review

Here is my comprehensive review of the Wessex "Wyvern" CC contrabass tuba. Wessex sent me this tuba to review, and after several weeks of playing it, I'm excited to be the first person to review it on YouTube. Although this tuba was manufactured in China, it is a unique design and built very well. Watch this review and see for yourself some amazing things that are happening in tuba and instrument design. I'm confident that some day in the very near future somebody is going to win a major orchestral audition on a Chinese made instrument.

The review was filmed on Panasonic GH4 and GH5 cameras with various Leica lenses. I also was using Sennheiser and Blue microphones for the recording. All of the tuba that you hear in the video, other than a few brief moments from Will Druiett and Roger Bobo was actually played on this tuba.

An extra special thank you to the Matthews Concert Band! We're playing next Thursday night at the Matthews Community Center.
