BBb 6/4 Tuba with 5-valves 'Prokofiev' - TB693 HP
The Wessex Prokofiev TB693 is our flagship BBb tuba, built in the 6/4 wrap configuration and equipped with 5 valves for expanded range and flexibility. Designed for serious bass players, this instrument combines rich tonal depth, solid projection, and responsive playability to meet the demands of concert, band, and recording performance.
With its carefully engineered bore and conical profiles, the Prokofiev TB693 delivers a warm, resonant voice that cuts clearly without losing fullness. Whether you’re anchoring a symphony ensemble, performing in a brass band, or recording in the studio, this 6 4 tuba handles power and nuance with equal ease.
The fifth valve expands your lower register options without sacrificing agility or clarity. Wessex hand-inspects and tests each TB693 before shipping, so you can expect stable intonation, fluid valve action, and consistency from day one.
When you want a big tuba sound with modern control and extended range, the Wessex Prokofiev TB693 stands ready. Its 5-valve design, robust build, and musical voice make it ideal for professional players who demand both depth and flexibility.
"I purchased a Prokofiev JUST to play 'Star Wars.' Now, this is my 'go to' tuba for just about everything. If I could buy 3 for my Wind Orchestra, 2 for my Brass band, and 5 for my Community band, I would ... in a heartbeat. If you do almost exclusively big group playing, and want ONE tuba for that, Go get yourself one."

NOTE: The correct gig bag for this tuba is the B800
