Melton Fafner Bb for sale $10,000

Post by jamesgourlay »

Hello. I'm selling my Melton Fafner Bb tuba. It's a fabulous horn with a huge sound, and great intonation. Included is a 4th slide extension, which effectively works like a 5th valve. The instrument is clean, one dent only, with Melton gig bag. I'm based in Pittsburgh PA if anyone wants to come try the horn, or buyer pays shipping.

Photos are here:

Could you talk about the 5th valve and maybe show pic with it in place? What notes do you use it 4 and how well does it work?
