I’m still looking everybody. Looking for a good 5/4 c tuba, piston preferred, and silver preferred. However, rotary and/or lacquer is fine depending on what it is and condition.
Located in Louisiana, I’d like to keep it 7k or under

It depends on what you call "good". I have a Chinese (M&M logo) 5 valve (4 piston, 1 rotor) B&S 3198 clone. It seems to play pretty well in tune and has a good sound, but it's just not my cup of tea. Message me if you are at all interested - it would cost you less than 1/3 of that $7k budget.

“Good” more so in good build quality and tuning

I have a spare CC I'd let go for half that, but it's smaller than 5/4, rotary, and lacquered. But well made, West German, great condition, fast easy valves, and easy to play in tune.
