[Thread revival. - Mod] Hi I've been out of the loop for a while so apologies in advance if this is old hat.

Thanks all for the advice, I've been listening to a lot of tunes on the low f on utube and yes there is something special about that key. I'll look out for a starter one, maybe a Dixon? Will look out for A as well. I haven't played for a while so it's good to be getting back into it.

I've had a brass and a nickel Gen Bb for years now and the brass has a lovely sweet tone. I've noticed more recently A is becoming popular, do folk reckon there is much difference between the Bb and an A?
