  UkBrassHire has a 180th anniversary Besson tuba for hire

UkBrassHire is expanding its range of low brass instruments with a massive investment in both BBb and EEb tubas.

And that includes catering for the needs of players taking their first steps to those filling the world's most famous brass band stages with their foundation breaking sounds.

Lots of instruments

After getting our first consignment of Yamaha YEB-201 Eb tuba (perfect for youngsters), we have been looking to expand our collection.

We now have a beautiful Besson 180th Anniversary BBb tuba available for hire or sale and also have plans to stock a variety or basses from both Yamaha and Besson in the near future.

We can supply both individuals and bands and are devoting more and more of our efforts to sourcing specific instruments for bands both local, and further afieldUkBrassHire

Euphonium stock

Our euphonium stock has also increased with Besson Sovereigns, a Besson 180th Anniversary, Rosetti Series 7's, and a variety of both student and professional level Yamahas all in stock for immediate dispatch.

We can supply both individuals and bands and are devoting more and more of our efforts to sourcing specific instruments for bands both local, and further afield.
