The seller says it has Bach marked on the bell. Looks to me like a marching baritone. The seller had it listed as a french horn. For a $77 winning bid, I'll roll the dice.

It's a marching baritone. I've played one when helping to fill in the low section with one of the local high schools. I'm a little jealous as I keep looking for one hoping to come across that same type of deal. Musta missed that one

The seller had a tuba for sale, I looked at his other auctions and found this one.

I have been looking for something I could use to sit in with the jazz side of our community band. They need a fourth trombone now and then, figured this might work. That is, if the director will tolerate it, he is the first 'bone.

Isn't that kind of stuff normal in marching bands?

Yeah... it's a marching baritone. They are actually pretty hard to come by. I hardly ever get one to sell.... mostly because the ones that were in service in marching bands have been totally destroyed.

Well, it seems like you got a good deal because of the seller's incomplete title. Good for you!

I almost got a Scherzer piccolo trumpet (why I was bidding on a piccolo trumpet I'll never quite understand) at quite a deal because the seller listed it as piccolo instead of a piccolo trumpet (it didn't show up when searching for trumpet or piccolo trumpet). Anyways, I guess those trumpet players are a little more clever than us low brass guys... and the price got quite high.
