Hello everyone! Up for sale is my 1938 King 1291. I purchased it 2 or 3 years ago and have put a lot of work into taking out major dents and making this a fantastic tuba. It'll easily support a large band or orchestra. The string-linkage rotors are fast and quiet. I bought it because my teacher plays on one, but I've decided to go in another direction (and I don't need two 6/4 BBbs).
The horn comes with the original recording bell plus a genuine H.N. White upright bell that I bought from Lee Stofer. Also included is a ProTec gig bag that fits the horn while it has the upright bell. I will work on taking some pictures and posting a dropbox link today. Because it's such a rare horn and it has both bells, I'm asking $5,699 or best reasonable offer. If you're interested in the horn with only the upright bell, I can bring the price down. I'm willing to drive a considerable distance to avoid shipping, but I can ship if needed.

If you have ANY questions about the horn, please email me at tylerferris1213@gmail.com. That is the fastest way to get ahold of me. Thanks for looking!
