It's well worth the money to buy one in this condition.

Even as 3 valves, these horns play very well in tune and have fantastic false tones.
The Kanstul reproduction bells work really well if you want an upright bell, too.

The thing to look out for are usually shortened valve stems.
Once these babies are aligned, they play unlike any other 5-6/4 tuba.

IMHO.
