Contra94 Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Isn't the Hybrid supposed to be a Euphonium with the Size of a Baritone (or slightly larger than a standard Bari). I remember last year at DCI West, they had a King Euph and a SB Hybrid and the difference was there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euphscott Posted August 3, 2012 Author Share Posted August 3, 2012 You little girls don't know that half of it. You shoulda marched with a G euphonium. Not THOSE were big horns. :) I marched one for 5 years in DCA with Frontier and Vigilantes - this is true! I think it's going to make a nice lamp... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember last year at DCI West, they had a King Euph and a SB Hybrid and the difference was there. That is what the BD site indicates. And this is what brought me to ask - I've not found anyone on line that sells the hybrid. Of course, I need to contact my local dealer I suppose - but I was hoping to find an online source or ideally buy a used one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contra94 Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Ahh, I have no idea about used ones, I know when Blue Devils A got their newer SB Horns (in sections), the previous years horns were given to the B Corps (and one of the BDB tuba players said they're waiting for the SB50s). I'm not sure if there are many used SB horns out on the market right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 System Blue is dealt regionally, unlike the other Conn-Selmer lines of instruments. That means that you just need to locate the dealer for your region and they can order the horns for you, and they'll probably be one of the best ways to find out how to get ahold of the used corps horns as well. The Texas area dealer for the SB horns is Brook Mays Music/H&H Music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trh Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Still significantly heavier than a Yamaha euph... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ywpkm0 Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 The Yamaha is significantly lighter and counterbalanced...and plays easier with better intonation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
