Eb altos and Bb tenors are the most common types. However, there are 14 kinds - Eb and F sopranino, Bb and C soprano, Eb and F alto, Bb and C tenor, Eb and F baritone, Bb and C bass and Eb and F contra bass. Eb instruments are used in bands, rather than Fs, and smilarly Bbs rather than Cs. Contrabasses are HUGE!
