SOLD

Post by arpthark »

edit: TUBA IS SOLD!

Hi all,

I am considering selling my Eastman 832 CC. Fantastic instrument, but I am finding that I am not playing it very much these days. Very good intonation, round/pretty sound, easy to get around on. I have used this instrument in bands, small ensembles, quintet, and for solo work. Valves are vented and super smooth, all slides are well-aligned. Some minor pings on outer bows from normal use. Water keys have been added to the 4th and 3rd valve slides to assist in drainage, and a small flat spot on the edge of the bell was rolled out after a bandmate stepped on it. All work has been done by Dick Hansen out of Brimfield, MA.

Comes with blue Messina Covers bag and MTS-style Eastman hard case.

Sale price is $5,500 firm. Would also be interested in trading; mostly looking for a Miraphone 186 or 188 CC, but let me know if you have something similar in value or we can do trade + cash on your end. Don't be afraid to offer up something; my interests are varied.

You can pick up around Southeastern Connecticut or I can drive to meet you around New England or the NYC Metro area. PM me or email beanhillbrass at gmail.

Thanks!
Blake

here is a pic before water keys were added:

While I didn’t play this horn, I heard Blake play it. He sounded great on it!

Good deal for you peeps looking for a nice 4/4 CC.

A student of mine bought one of these as a convention demo without a gig bag and paid $7000. What a great deal.
Yep, I'm Mark
