WTB: BBb - something German, rotary or piston

Title says it all. Sold my previous horn and haven't replaced it yet, but would like to. I've PM'd a number of people with ads for sale, but haven't found the right thing yet, still talking to a few people. If you've got a horn for sale that you haven't listed yet, send me a message. Located in Denver, willing to drive a fair ways or do Greyhound/other shipping. Budget is flexible, as is piston/rotary, etc. Smallest horn I would consider is a 186, but willing to go bigger. In particular, I had a 1291 I liked, and have always liked the 289 and other Miraphone horns. Thanks!

Both Bloke and Tinker have very nice 4/4 4rv B&S/VMI BBb tubas for sale in the Sponsors section for good prices :!: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=87931&p=656708
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=87820 I'd buy one of those tubas if I had the money; but 13+ years later and I'm still paying off student loans... :roll:

Good points. I’ve been in touch with Bloke and will give Dan’s Horn a look.

I have a Russian 3v Bb and could supply a spare valve for converting to 4v.

Thanks for all of the PMs and recommendations. I decided on a Miraphone 191 5-valve, will be receiving next week.

Mouthpiece recommendations anyone?
