Let's put this up again to see if anyone's interested....
I'm selling my 1906 F. Besson Brevete Grand Prix Paris 3V BBb tuba. The tuba is in excellent shape for its age. It doesn't have any noticeable dents on the horn's bow. There are a few small dents on the bell section, but nothing to be concerned about.
This tuba's third valve was replaced at some point, so the valve is a little sluggish. But a good dose of valve oil gets it going.
Asking $300 (not including shipping via Greyhound).
Pictures available here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/yc30ggyqr3ob ... dUWa?dl=0=" target="_blank
Tuba CAN come with a SKB hard case: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=77262" target="_blank. Just add $300.
The case is a bit big for this tuba, but I've transported it around before using the case, and there's no noticeable jostling.
The horn is located near Kingston, NY.
SOLD: 1906 F. Besson Brevete 3V BBb Tuba - $300
