Another a Holton Eb. It may be just as lovely on the inside.

Hidden away in the Vintage Brass/ Other Brass section, so seller may not be as experienced in selling ye olde tubas.

But i have an affinity for Minnesota and folk therefrom.

I believe the first one would be available directly from its Tubenet member owner - viewtopic.php?f=4&t=95521

The 2nd variation looks so similar that at first I thought the difference might just perceptual, like looks skinnier because it isn't such a tight shot, not shiny etc. But only a 15 inch bell, if I read it right, where its lovely larger sister is 19, and it really does look smaller. Not that that's a bad thing, but then there's the low/standard/high pitch question, and it presumably takes a small shank.
