Vintage Martin Mammoth HANDCRAFT Tuba

Beautiful, great playing instrument in SUPERB Shape

This one is in silver and dates to the 30's

Yes, it is a HANDCRAFT meaning it was built by Martin's first-tier craftsmen.

LOADS of extras - Multiple mouthpieces, Custom Bags by Altieri of Denver, marching harness, sheet music and a CUSTOM hardwood stand as the commercially available stands will not safely support a 6/4 tuba.

You get it all for $2750.

Located in Denver.

Pics can be seen on Denver area Craigslist and the instrument looks even better than my crummy pictures.

Thanks for looking and please pass this info along as I want to put this one in a good home.

Think song and wind, not meat and muscle. -Arnold Jacobs
Tuba, mirum spargens sonum, per sepulchra regionum, coget omnes ante thronum.
With tubas and the call of the rams horn shout with joy. בחצצרות וקול שופר הריעו
