You can now come along and try out the brilliant instruments on offer at Wessex Tubas.

Impressive range

With Wessex Tubas building up such an impressive range of instruments — from the amazing ‘Bubbie’ tuba to the Kaiser Rotary baritone, why not come along and try them for yourself at the Wessex showroom in Andover, Hampshire — even at the weekends.

Get in touch

Just email Sales@Wessex-Tubas.co.uk, or phone 07787 504987 to ensure they are there and not on one of our popular roadshows and that Jonathan Hodgetts is available to provide the type of personal service that has become the Wessex Tuba hallmark.

Exotic

The showroom is an 'Aladdin's cave' of brass of all shapes and sizes – with not only all the brass band range, but a lot of exotic instruments you will not find elsewhere.

The fantastic Wessex range is on hand as well as the little ‘Bubbie tuba’, contrabass trombone and sousaphone which are particularly popular, and the rotary Kaiser baritone for the euphonium player and rotary trumpet for the cornet player too.
