Yamaha 51L and Conn EZ-Tone -- OBO

Post by bort2.0 »

No idea how to price these. $25 each plus shipping? Buy both and save on combined shipping. I'm way off? You tell me... I just want these gone, and trying to clear $40-something in the end.

Yamaha 51L -- someone scratched the letters "OR" on the side, and then proceeded to lightly use the mouthpiece. Shank is very very slightly out of round. Otherwise in great shape and super shiny.

Conn EZ-Tone -- in great shape compared to the garbage on eBay. It shows just some slight wear in a few places... But overall seems like something that hasn't been used very much.

Here are photos, which are purposely illuminated and distorted to make them look as awful as possible. IRL, they both look just fine.

I have a soft spot in my head for EZ Tones.

Let me know if you have any trouble selling it.

(i loaned one to someone starting on tuba, and last i checked, he still uses it.)

Does the "Z" in "EZ-Tone" stand for "Ziggurat"?

People buy those easy tone things, probably mostly because of the way they look... but I predict that this one will sell pretty quickly.

The initials on the Yamaha mouthpiece don't bother me, but what bothers me about Yamaha mouthpieces is that they use Bach and Schilke numbers, but that their mouthpieces aren't faithful to the numbers they reference.
