Yamaha YEP 321 euphonium with rare 5th valve attachment. Pull ring and stop rod added to the first valve slide. The first valve has been vented to allow for pitch adjustment. Includes a case, a Schilke 51-D mouthpiece, and a standard fourth valve slide.

This euphonium belonged to Everett Gilmore, longtime principal tubist with the Dallas Symphony. All procedes go to his widow. The horn is in excellent condition with only minor laquer wear. $1800 + shipping, firm. Contact me for more details.

Seems like a very good price for a unique horn.

I have the 5V version of the Eb tuba, with the 5th valve lengthened to a flat whole step configuration by Lee Stofer. It works very well with that configuration, even with the low E natural. Noticeably more open than my compensating Besson 983 was. I expect this euph will play very well in the low register, and should be in tune all the way down to the low C, if the 5th valve is flat half step (std Yamaha config for the Eb tuba 5th valve).

Someone will get a very nice euph....
