Prime candidate to turn into a no-tuning-slide F tuba.

Price seems a bit steep for a three valve Eb...

Ugliest horn? Just needs to be polished...

Actually looks quite clean overall, just who the heck wants a smallish 3 valve Eb tuba? :bugeyes: :laugh:

Will double check, but i read it as a mid to largish Eb. Not quite Martin mammoth or York/Holton monster proportions, but still on the large side of things. And i vaguely think if one stopped in and tried it, one might enjoy the result.

And i got word from a friend who attended the Portland tuba christmas is that ugliest tuba contest winner got a gift certificate to a repair shop, so it may not look nearly as ugly as it was when it won.
