FS Miraphone Bel Canto 181 F Tuba (PRICE DROP)

Post by Tim.Huddleston »

This instrument was originally purchased in 2012 tested and chosen as the best of a batch at the factory in Germany by Steve Rosse.
It's an excellent horn, intonation is spot on, sound is rich and sweet, great low range for a rotary F, and high range is just really nice.

It's 6 valves, 4 right hand and 2 on the left. All valves vented. Silver plated with gold brass underneath, this gives it a wonderful resonance. It's in excellent condition.

It comes with a very good Miraphone gig bag and a hard case. I’ve also just had it serviced by Aaron Ebert so it is in great playing condition with a 6 month warranty!

It truly is a wonderful horn! It has been very reliable over the last three years. I’m only parting with it because I’m not needing an F Tuba at the moment.

Price is $12,500AUD which is good considering a new one bought into the country with both hard and soft case is close to $19,000AUD
I'm located in Melbourne, Australia and I am happy to drive a reasonable distance for you to spend some time testing it. I’m also happy to arrange for the instrument to be sent interstate or internationally at the expense of the buyer.

Please let me know if you're interested :tuba:
