I bought this horn new from Mack Brass. It's in nearly perfect condition with no dings. All the valves are fast and quiet, and the slides pull easily. The tuba plays really quite in tune, and has a beautiful, warm sound. Comes with the case shown and I'll throw in a Fergusson Laskey 30G MP (which pairs nicely with the horn IMO). I also have the original box and I'm no stranger to shipping tubas. Shipping costs and liability to be covered by the buyer. Feel free to reach out for more pictures or recordings. I am getting my new horn by mid February, and would prefer to have this to play until then, but I'm willing to have a gap if somebody needs it sooner. (I do have my 70's Besson Eb to toot on after all )

I'd entertain trade offers for a Wessex Mini Jazz tuba, tornister tuba or potentially the right sousaphone if anyone has one they're not using.
Located in Portland, OR. I'm willing to drive upwards of 4 hours for serious buyers.
Thanks for looking!

I might well be interested. I live in Berkeley CA and would consider meeting up with you in Ashland Oregon, IF we can arrange a deal. You mention the horn is in near perfect condition with no dings. What causes this horn to be near perfect, but not perfect? Dents, scratches, lacquer wear, etc. If you wish, please discuss with me by email, h42836@AOL.COM Thanks.
