For sale is a Mienl Weston 2145
I am the second owner of this of fantastic horn bought in 2019 from a player who was retiring. It has served me well in my current orchestra and band ensembles, my college auditions and has advanced me in a few military auditions.
This is a very versatile and great do-it-all horn designed in cooperation with Sam Pilafian. It gives the player a surprising amount of power and projection needed in a large ensemble, while still providing dexterity and clarity needed in chamber groups. I personally use it in Wind Ensemble, Wind Symphony, Philharmonia, and in my quintet here at the University of Cincinnati. It’s also a great horn for recording. I have recorded many military band auditions and advanced because of the clarity I can achieve with the horn. The pistons are extremely smooth and agile and the horn maintains an even sound and tone throughout all of the registers and has a solid and easy low range.
Horn specs:
CC-Tuba
4/4 size
4 piston steel valves
Bore: 19mm / .748"
4th valve 20mm / .787"
5th valve rotary valve: 20,5mm / .807"(thumb operated)
Bell : 42cm / 16.5"
Height: 93m / 36.6"
Yellow Brass Finish
Small valve set
Horn has been maintained and recently serviced this past spring. Horn has some cosmetic dings and scratches on the bell, but no major dents. Mostly a raw brass finish .
Horn comes with Protec gig bag and the original Melton 24AW that came with the horn.
I personally use an original Laskey 28H that works fantastically that I could sell with the horn for a little extra. Around $150
Price is $5000 but willing to negotiate
Pictures furnished at request
Horn is located in Rock Hill, SC. Willing to drive a couple hours to meet buyer. Can get the horn to Cincinnati easily if needed. If shipping is preferred it is at buyers expense.
