I am selling my Gronitz PCM CC tuba in (rare) lacquer.
This has been my go to, do it all tuba for many years. It is approximately 20 years old. I am the second owner. The first owner was (formaly) the tuba player in the Memphis Symphony.
The low register on this tuba is fantastic! The valves are as good as any piston valves I have ever played. This model is considered a 4/4, but to my ears it sounds and plays more like a small 5/4. It is a little warmer and has a bigger low register than the Miraphone 188. It is incredibly responsive and open. The metal is light weight. - - bore of 19/20 mm- bell 420mm- height 97 cm. I would sell this tuba with a hard and a soft case. There are scratches and blemishes on it, but many are hidden and cannot be seen at a distance. No dents. There's one worn off lacquer spot on the bell. I'm not sure of a price yet.
$7000
I will not ship it. You must come try it and buy in person. I live in NYC. Contact me here: kyleturnertuba@gmail.com

Re: Gronitz PCM CC, lacquer $7000
I’m wondering if Tuba Exchange told you who the previous owner was.
I recall him ordering one on approval, both him and me spending a half hour or so playing it on different days, and then him returning it well within the approval time. (This was quite a few years ago.)
When returned, I’m pretty sure it was still technically a new instrument.
