The YFB-822S is Yamaha's custom F tuba, a 4/4 instrument with four front-action monel pistons and a thumb-triggered fifth rotary valve. The .768-inch bore and 17-1/2-inch yellow brass bell give it a focused, projecting sound with the even intonation Yamaha is known for. It suits players who want a compact F tuba for solo and quintet work, and it ships with a case and mouthpiece. Against European rotary F tubas it offers piston familiarity and consistent build; players wanting a bigger orchestral F sound may prefer a larger bell or rotary design.
