Andy King - French Horn:
(Andy has a great disdain for people who are overly concerned with a brass players equipment. The comments below were extracted from him with great difficulty.)
I play a Kalison (I think the model is an A3, but I'm not sure). My horn also has a dent in the B flat crook that I think adds a great deal of warmth to the sound. The proper way to create such a dent is to practice in the small rooms in Presser and turn around quickly, as if surprised by something, smacking your horn on the doornob. My usual mouthpiece is a Shilke 31C, but I also play sometimes on a Shilke 30 (when I forget the first one, or am tired) and a wooden Bertoucci mouthpiece.

Kevin Geraldi - Trombone:
I play on a Bach 42GH with the open wrap F attachment. My primary mouthpiece is a Greg Black Joseph Alessi model 5.5. My other horn is a Bach 16 with the lightweight slide.

Tim Culbertson - Tuba:
Tim plays a Mirafone 188 tuba with a Perantucci PT-44 mouthpiece. His backup instruments are a french E flat tuba, circa 1927, a green Vito clarinet, and a comb that used to have some tissue paper with it, until it got lost.
