Kinda looks like the Matt Walters cut Marzan CC that sold awhile back.
What's the story behind this?

Re: What's the story behind this?
I emailed the seller, he replied with his phone number and said to call for details. I googled the number, and it's a pawn shop/shooting range. That's all I needed to hear.

Re: What's the story behind this?
Neither one of the horns pictured so far in this thread have the 'classic' Marzan wrap. It appears that both have the main tuning slides on the bottom.

Re: What's the story behind this?
That is clearly a raw brass MW 2145. Tighter wrap, smaller bows & bell, different ferrules than the Marzan/Meinl posted in the other thread. Not the same tuba.TheHatTuba wrote:http://www.ebay.com/itm/300844754111?ss ... 1438.l2648" target="_blank

Re: What's the story behind this?
I don't know what it is, but I'll just second the curiosity. I noticed it pretty soon after it opened and wondered. The outer branches look like the valves should be rotors, but voila, they are pistons. It is an odd looking horn. Very curious about what it is.
