A pint if you correct the fingering chart. 
Whatever, the thing is eight plus years old, so 
we should cut them some slack. Maybe valves and 
notes were different, eh?

When I think about it, it's been well over 50 
years that I used a brass fingering chart. Then 
when I think about it again, I can't imagine why 
I would ever use one. Unless I were a silly 
finger pusher like some woodwind players.

P.S. At home I have, somewhere, a picture of my 
playing a seven valve sidewinder F tuba. The 
fingering chart was taped on the bell, in plain 
sight. This was in a Carmel Bach Festival 
(California) program 30+ years ago.
