Thanks for pointing it out.

My guess? Holton. Only a guess though...

Honestly, I have enough outstanding projects i am inclined to shoot first and ask questions later. Um... where necks are concerned.

That didn’t take long to sell lol. It’s was well priced.

My new guess is old Holton raincatchers or Sousas

the tubing before the 90 degree angle is so short, I wonder if it's designed for a helicon.

I suspect not originally, but perhaps now it is?

I may not be the only person who shoots first...

And at the current price it might seem worth it to buy the york for the neck...

I wonder how many owe Jabba...

I am reminded for some reason, isn't Jabba's theme a tuba solo? Why haven't i bothered to learn it already?!

I also figured out the flaw in the plan: shipping.

(excepting personally i count this seller as a local pick up)
