SOLD: MW Thor Copy w/ upgrades $6K

Post by willthetubaguy »

**SOLD DELETE**

I really hate to do this, but for sale is my amazing example of a Chinese copy of the Meinl Weston Thor. The horn plays extremely well, being a 5V 5/4 CC equipped with MAW valves, having the valves vented, and with a custom raw brass leadpipe. I have the original valves and leadpipe that will come with the horn, as well as a ProTec gig bag and a hard case. The horn plays extremely well and is seriously the best bang for your buck out there. I bought the horn from another member of the forum and put quite a bit of extra money into the horn, so I'm listing it at $6000. Pretty firm on price, can have a little wiggle room for serious buyers.

Bump. Had a lot of interest while I was gone but couldn't fully commit to sale, this is a really great instrument. Sadly I really do need to sell it now.

Does Chinese copy of a Thor mean it's a Wessex Wyvern, or is this something different?

Different horns. ZO made a straight up Thor, MW5450 copy for a little while which is what this is.

Bump. This horn is seriously the best bang for your buck that you can get. My old colleagues and I played this side by side with an authentic Thor, where we unanimously agreed this horn was more impressive than the MW due to its' modifications.
