Hi-
While browsing, I noticed Baltimore Brass has a used Nirschl F AND one of those 6/4 Rudi BBb monsters with the 22" bell...Fyi...

I'd like to spend 5 minutes with that BBb.

I played one at Lee Sofer’s Atlanta shop years back. Hard to describe how giant these things are. Eat a York style 6/4 and barely burp.

Doc, the one at Baltimore is Mike’s. He has it there on consignment. I’d love to own one some day.

I figured it was part of the long, slow, large, "you cant take it with you" selloff.

One of the reasons I don't collect much of anything. It's fun for a while, but eventually, it's just a bunch of stuff that nobody else has an interest in possessing in that same format. "Here's all of dad's old _____"

I know it’s a private collection, and over the years, Mike has provided some photos of a horn here or there, but I would sure love to see the entire thing!
