Nice! And close to my hometown, too. I don't have a way to contact the seller since I'm not on FB... can anyone help me out to contact them?

I remember when up-and-coming Austin Howle had one of those, and was working his butt off to make it work.
For quite a long time now, he has owned a later 1970s B&S Symphonie - 4+2 config.

I had one that I bought for $2800 on eBay. The seller said it purportedly was used at one time by the Detroit Symphony tubist. There was a repair bill in the case signed by Alan Baer who was Milwaukee connected at that time. Alan appraised the horn at $5000. Great and glorious tone color on that tuba and good intonation, but I could not get the low C to work. (Sound familiar?) I sold the horn to a guy in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
