Meinl-Weston Model 3225 "Ursus" CC tuba- 4 piston valves, 1 rotary valve

[Diego A. Stine]

This special tuba, designed and crafted in Germany, is incredibly versatile. It was designed for maximum efficiency in both physical size and volume of sound. The tuba blends with a brass quintet and yet fills out an entire symphony orchestra. Its clarity, response, and intonation are exceptional. The low range is easy and powerful. This particular example has been performed in Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center, and the Kimmel Center.

It comes with a custom Meinl-Weston gig bag, Walt Johnson flight case (VERY hard to find), and Meinl-Weston mouthpiece. Here are the costs as new from a retailer:

Ursus tuba $13,000
flight case $1,000
sales tax $800 (depending on state)
shipping $800 (depending on location)
Total app. $15,600

I am selling it because I have acquired more tubas. It is 4.5 years old and located in the DC area. Feel free to try it out! I will also bring it to the Army Tuba-Euphonium Workshop in February if you would like to try it out there.

$12,700 gets you the whole package. Local pickup only. Please get in contact through the forum's private message feature.
