The Famous “Washburn” tuba has been found!

The Craigslist poster of this ad is only telling part of the story. Mick Jagger had tubas made by every major guitar manufacturer for this tour. He wanted a tuba tribute on “Symphony for the Devil” and he went all out. In addition to this very rare Washburn tuba, there was also the Ibanez BBb Sousaphone, the Fender double neck Eb / F tuba, the Gibson Flying T and the Martin all acoustic CC Jumbo recording bell monster tuba. These horns required an additional cargo plane. An amazing tour that will go down in tuba history as one of the finest. It’s hard to believe this person would even part with such an important part of Rock-and-Roll history. If we’re all lucky, the Rock and Roll Museum will buy it so it will be on permanent display for all of us to drool over.
