The professionals that ''I'' have known played more than one, including both C and B♭ tubas.<br>
While I believe either of the statements in the article are true, I think they are misleading.<br>

== Photos ==

There has been a bit of back-and-forth on photos between {{u|TubaPlayers.USA}}, {{u|Special-T}} and {{u|MrOllie}} at least, and I am pinging {{u|Just plain Bill}} as another interested party. Can we please discuss this and reach consensus on which photo(s) to use? I hate to see it bouncing around and I am not sure that {{u|TubaPlayers.USA}} is aware of how consensus operates here ... it would be much much better to agree it here than to risk edit-warring over it. Thanks and best to all [[User:DisillusionedBitterAndKnackered|DBaK]] ([[User talk:DisillusionedBitterAndKnackered|talk]]) 10:47, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

:They're a [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tuba&diff=prev&oldid=1078469264 vandal]. There's no way we're going to reach consensus to include vandalism. [[User:MrOllie|MrOllie]] ([[User talk:MrOllie|talk]]) 12:06, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
::Yup, we can and should look at [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/TubaPlayers.USA their contributions], thanks. Agreed that their first-ever edit was pure childish crap, yes. But are the next three GF efforts? They do not look like vandalism{{snd}}well, let's be honest, they are not: they do not meet the definition. So that's not quite it. But I am happy to see that you reverted them to an image which I personally found better. Maybe they will get the message, or come here to discuss it, or go away. But I do think that if they can at least discuss it sensibly here and not edit-war then they should get the chance to state their case.

::'''Update:''' they are currently indeffed for the [[User talk:TubaPlayers.USA|username]]. It will be interesting to see whether they come back with a new name and serious discussion in mind ... cheers [[User:DisillusionedBitterAndKnackered|DBaK]] ([[User talk:DisillusionedBitterAndKnackered|talk]]) 13:33, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

== tenor clef?? ==

The range of the tuba in the infobox is given in bass and tenor clefs. Does this make sense? Is the tenor clef used for the tuba in ANY circumstance? -- [[User:MegA|megA]] ([[User talk:MegA|talk]]) 06:24, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
