VINTAGE CAVALIER SOUSAPHONE TUBA

The tuba is in very good condition with a few dents."
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Methinks the copy writer might have been a bit "dents" ... :wink:

I don't know about you guys, but I just won't buy a horn if it doesn't have the original neck... even if it does come with a "Franklin Mellophone" mouthpiece!

Naw, this here is one o' them there new fangled inverted "light-raincatcher models"; to be used only when the chance of showers is 30% or less. Either that....or...... we've all heard of "pocket trumpets?" Well, how about a pocket sousaphone!!!???? :lol:

I've seen the alto sousaphone, too. But on this one... ummm...
How do you put it on your shoulder?

Don't laugh too hard - I've seen an alto sousaphone! A lady brought it to TubaChristmas in Riverside this last December; it was apparently one of a couple hundred built by Jupiter as "eye-catchers" for store displays.
Actually, I was lucky enough to get a civil-war-era alto helicon, which WAS designed to be used. Just has small tubing and a blind tubing part of the circle, like many Eb bass sousaphone designs...
