Buescher Baritone FS (pictures added)

Post by Alex C »

I'm selling my Buescher baritone. It's a 3 valve, Bb which is silver plated (80%) and in good condition with some dents mostly along the outside branch. I had it chemically cleaned before putting it up for sale.

It gets a great sound and the pitch is good. The sound is pure American baritone, very meaty, not the British baritone sound at all. The low register packs enough punch to make it useable.

But, it's a 3 valve and I need 4 because I'm allergic to 1-3 and 1-2-3 valve combinations.

The case is original and still protects the horn.

Asking $350.00 plus shipping. Offers?

Silly questions: Do all the slides and valves work smoothly, and are they tight/no leaks?

Don't mean to be offensive, but would like to be sure.

I am like so not offended.

Everything works. Slides move, etc. The valves look good but I frankly haven't checked compression because I thought the horn worked well enough that it didn't occur to me. duh

Thanks for asking.
