Looks like too many branches (or too long) to be in E flat

Maybe in CC (anything's possible, I guess).

In any event, it looks like it needs a lot of work....

The 1st valve loop looked kinda short to me, so I guess I got sucked in.... :tuba:

I have the perfect 4 valve king jumbo sousa cluster freshly brought back to life by Oberloh. I'd love to pick this up as a donor body for that valve cluster but that guy is smoking crack if he thinks it is worth 2300 missing all those parts.

If anyone does break down to buy it, let me know. I'd be happy to sell you the valve block and slides.

40 pounds of scrap brass with all the missing parts. I have a friend who had the same horn. He only got 2700 out of his and it was playable. Made a hell of a racket though.
