Great deal for a great tuba :!:

B&S/VMI seemed to make the 101, 102?, and 103 models, in BBb and CC, under the 'Musica' label. 'Musica' was UMI's (now Conn-Selmer) import name for these VMI-made tubas. I believe most of these tubas were made in the late 1990's/early 2000's. Older 'Musica' tubas from before that time were made with Cerveny/Amati parts.
