Selling price for a Mirafone 186 Bb, 5 rotor

[hammerhead48]

I have a 40 plus year old Mirafone 186, Bb, 5 rotor. I loaned it to player who is playing it in a brass group while I am in Florida. He is interested in purchasing it and I am not sure how much it is worth. I paid $ 3300 several years ago and had a new lead pipe installed for around $ 900. I also have a nice Gard wheelie bag which goes with it. The tuba does have a few wrinkles in the bell but most of them were smoothed out by Sides Music. It still has some shine but a lot of the laquer is worn. How much should I be asking? I have a newer St. Petersburg which is my main tuba for brass groups and community bands.

Five valve Bb? I’d think maybe around $3500
