I am selling my early Miraphone F tuba.

$3500 with two lead pipes, two 5th valve slides, a Reunion Blues Gig Bag and brand new linkages


The horn is really solid and has been a blast to play on!

Pictures available upon request!

The 5th valve slides are the standard options, you just get to pick which one you want to use.

Yes.
The horn is with me in East Tennessee/SE Kentucky at the moment...I'm transporting it for JW since she bought a new F tuba and needs to sell this one to help pay off the balance of the new horn. I will be bringing it back to Julie's folks' place in Wisconsin when I go back up to move my stuff to my new Location.
If there are any interested parties on the I-75 corridor between Knoxville and Dayton I can probably arrange for you to play the horn. Otherwise it will be back in WI before the beginning of August.
For what it's worth, my opinion of the horn is it plays great- It's a real F tuba with a nice, singing sound. Julie had new linkage put on it and the valves are fast and quiet. One would be hard pressed to find an F tuba that plays this well at the price Julie's asking.....So that's my plug for the horn that's taking up space in my office right now. Happy hunting.

After this horn and I spend about 2 weeks traveling WI (Madison, Milwaukee and Rhinelander area and anywhere in between) It will head back to Kansas via Rockford, Des Moines and Kansas City. Please let Sean or me know where you are so that we can bring the horn by!

Thanks,

Julie
