Posted: Sun Jul 16, 2023 12:15 am
Brand/model: Besson Sovereign 982 Eb (3+1)
Location: Clarksville, TN (45 minutes NW of Nashville)
I purchased it from Baltimore Brass in 2017 and treated it well. The vintage of the horn appears to be from the late 1980s, based on the 788504 serial number. Despite its age, its silver plating is >99% intact, and there are only small dents and very little wear. It's been a steadfast companion, but I'm not playing anymore these days and it seems a shame to let it gather dust. Pictures can be found at the link below. If there's something specific you want a closer look at, let me know and I'll do my best to accommodate.
Asking $5,000, which is pretty reasonable given the price of used comps I've been able to locate. I'll include a durable SKB case built for tubas with 19" bells. Buyer will assume all additional shipping costs. I'd prefer not to ship if possible, and am willing to drive a few hours in any direction to avoid it.
Any reasonable offer will be entertained!
