Willson 3400S Eb - PIC'S Added

Post by Navytubaman »

This is my personal Eb, purchased from Willson in 1994. I have used it all over town in orchestra, in quintets, and in the band and hand wonderful comments.

4 Piston, 1 Rotary in Silverplate - It is in immaculate condition, and will make it's new owner proud for many years to come.

The valves were vented by Matt Walters, slides move freely, and finish is pristine. - there is some plating wear on the thumbring I noticed when taking the pictures -

It has never had dent work or any other work done as it has been well maintained and not needed anything but regular cleanings. there is 1 tiny dent in the first slide where it fell out once and also the same on the bell where it hit. I really mean they are tiny

Why am I selling? As my career comes to an end, my needs for instruments in the future will be changing. Instead of it not being played, someone will be very happy.

I pulled the spec's off the interent for those not familiar with these horns.

EEb 4/4 Tuba
4 Piston, 1 Rotary Valve
17.75" Bell
.750-790 Bore
37.5 Height

$6300 for Tuba, Gig Bag, Willson Case w/wheels, and Shipping in the lower 48 states.

Quite a bargain when you include all the extra's...

Would you accept some kind of payment plan? I am a college student who, even though I have a good amount of money coming in each month, I have not really been able to set any real amount aside. I have been wanting to get a 3400S for quite some time now and will be finishing up paying off my first horn (hopefully) by the end of this month. If we could work something out that would absolutely be a dream come true. Also, I do a lot of work on Finale for various publishing companies (Oxford Press, for example), so if you have any music that you would like engraved, I could include my services as part of my payment. Basically what I'm getting at is that I will do pretty much anything to get this horn.

Thank you to the TubeNet collective for the many inquiries about this instrument. I know the right buyer is out there somewhere.

As of now, it is still for sale...

If you have an interest, please contact me.

Basically, a big fat BUMP!

Again for sale

Post by Navytubaman »

TO ALL:

My horn is again available as a pending deal fell through because of lack of funds.

If you are interested in a very well kept, very good playing horn, let me know.

Case, Altieri Gig Bag, and Tuba, Shipping included $6300. It's the complete package.

It's a pretty good value since you get it all, plus no tax, and I pay shipping.

Please send me a PM if interested.
