Very reluctantly, I am offering this for sale in order to make room for another tuba.
I used this tuba the last few years on outdoor gigs and not much else. It plays very well with very fine intonation. I had no intention of selling until today. There is enough overlap that I can probably get away with playing my Conn 36k.
It’s a four-valve King from approximately 1984 with orange lacquer (about 50-75% remaining) and updated slide layout. All slides move, valve plating is 100%. Has 21.5" detachable recording bell. No significant dents. Evidence of past repair and I believe it has a replacement/raw brass lead pipe. Comes with hard cases for bell and body.
I can ship both cases separately or you can pick up in CT. Also open to driving to meet around New England or the greater NYC metro area.
Asking $1,750. PM me or email beanhillbrass at iCloud dot com.
Thanks! Pics incoming.

) a reasonably-skilled repairman could convert to upright (via cutting up a hopelessly-ruined 186 bell to supply the straight portion).
If I didn't have a terrific 1240 King already! This horn is perfectly priced and hopefully will sell quickly. Good Luck with the sale!
