PLAYS WELL. SLIDES ALL PULL. NOT BEAUTIFUL, BUT PLAYS GREAT. OUT OF ROUND RECEIVER....
COMMENTS: MISSING VALVES AND TOP CAPS. LEADPIPE DENTED. BELL WRINKLED, BRACES NEED ATTENTION.

For only 19 cents a day, you could sponsor a needy tuba like this one...

Perhaps they were referring to the horn's ability at poker?
I showed the picture to one of my horns. She said: "I was sad because I had no oil. Then I met a horn with no valves." It was a very touching moment.

Aw, c'mon! It's a Couesnon for goodness sake! If it doesn't play better with a crushed mouthpipe and no valves, at least it CAN'T be any worse... !

You know, it's not the equipment that makes the difference, it's the player....
I'd tear it up on a tuba with missing valves any day.
