Overview
Playing in tune in the low register is the aim of this Eastman, whose compensating valve cluster corrects pitch when valves are combined. A yellow brass bell and a rose brass leadpipe shape a warm, classic tone.
Professional players get stainless steel pistons for smooth, secure action and a tone rich in harmonics. Weight is substantial, and the listing leaves out a case and mouthpiece, so confirm what ships.
Who it's for
A serious euphonium player in a band or brass ensemble who wants silver plating and compensating valves for the low end. Younger students will find it heavy to handle.
Pros and cons
- Fully compensating valves

Performance notes
Extra tubing in the compensating system lengthens the air column when valves are combined, so low notes stay in tune. A rose brass leadpipe and yellow brass bell give a warm tone rich in harmonics.
