Are these worth it in playing condition?

Are these worth it in playing condition?

Post by Tubajug »

Greetings,

This tuba just showed up on craigslist here in Lincoln. Tubas don't show up very often around here and I'm wondering how these play when fixed up. I've already got a little Lyon and Healy Eb (see my signature) that I resurrected. Would this play better than that one? I don't really NEED another Eb, or another project for that matter, but if I can get it for a low enough price, would it be a decent horn in the end (I can probably do most of the work myself depending on what it needs)?

If at first you don't succeed, skydiving's probably not for you.
