To some folks, any 4-rotary-valve BBb is a Miraphone 186.

Aw, c'mon guys! It WAS "Cleaned one month ago with a MTS hard case"... Looks like cleaning it with a hard case wiped off that "nickel silver wreath"!!!

That wreath, like the nickel-silver leadpipe, must have just been painted on. But dig those "spiral springs".

Might make more sense to contact the seller. As a scheme to defraud someone, this is really has some problems - the picture clearly shows the make name, local pickup is going to be kind of awkward, etc. I guess there's a chance that the seller did this on purpose because while the auction item really is that Miraphone, the Musica was a prettier picture. But more likely, it was just an error.

Still seems rather harsh to clean it using a case

Could have been just a precautionary measure (but a Justin case works much better for that
) ...

Justin's cases are pretty good, but I've been using Wurst cases lately, myself.

I recommend Federal cases whenever possible!

I'm not one to going to that much trouble. I prefer a
briefcase.

'Fraid I'm already there, Dan ("Duck Thread Memories", anyone?

is appreciated!
