I am putting my Brdr. Alexander Meinz BBb up for sale. I sadly do not play this horn enough to justify having it.
I have the following 2 pictures of the horn. More can be sent on request:

The horn has the great Alexander sound, and to a certain extent, the Alexander intonation. But intonation wise, I would say that this one of the better examples. It has been fitted with an adapter so that it accepts a normal shank mouthpiece.
The horn comes with a usable wooden case.
The bell might need a little repair. I think ~200$. But the valves are well cared for, and are in perfect condition.
This tuba has been discussed on Tubenet before. See link

I am asking 3000$ + shipping from Denmark.

Please feel free to ask questions.

Thank you Wade


The tuba has a history that I know of.

It was bought new in 1960 by the Danish military. And it is engraved with a Danish military logo that is placed just above the leadpipe. It was impossible for me to photograph the logo correctly. Instead I have constructed a picture of the logo. See link below:
