F. Sydow, Potsdom Tuba

Post by floydr »

This is another Tuba in the collection I am trying to disperse for Phil Karp's widow. F. Sydow, Potsdom Tuba BBb Front 4 short valve action. Anyone have one that can help me decide if it is worth getting the leaks fixed?

I'm not sure that I would even mess with it. A Berliner valve tuba like this will probably be of most interest to someone if it is as original as possible, and will expect to need to do some work done if they intend to play it.

F. Sydow was in Potsdam 1860-1892
