Selling Miraphone 188 C Tuba
Posted: Thu May 30, 2024 9:23 pm
$8,700 OBO
I bought it new from the horn guys. Played it through college and now it just sits in a closet. I always say "I'll pick it up again some day" and that day never comes. This beautiful instrument deserves to make beautiful music again.
Normal wear and tear but still in excellent condition. Just small dings and scratches nothing major. All the valves turn and all the slides slide. Just needs a little TLC (grease, oil, ultrasound clean wouldn't hurt).
Comes with a blue Cronkhite gig bag (circa 2012 I've heard the newer ones aren't as good).
Also giving away all my solos and study materials so this would be a perfect set up for an aspiring young student.
I also have the original Miraphone mouthpiece if you want it. It looks like garbage but it works.
