I can help with the mouthpiece:
Here is chapter and verse on the TE Marcinkiewicz Rose LS:
OD is 1.954" or 49.63mm
ID is 1.326" or 33.68mm
Cup Depth is 1.679" or 42.65mm
Throat is .312" or 7.92mm
Length is 3.900" or 99.06mm
The shank seems (to me) to be larger than an American shank.

So, Walter, I'm assuming this clearing out of the TE accessories means you were able to sell your Kalison CC? Did you get a replacement horn?
Like the Pachyderm said, make it easy for us lazy tuba players to see your items. If people have to go out of their way to email you, you'll get that much less interest.
see here for how to post pix if you don't already know:

My vote for Walter as a standup guy.
After 3 car accidents, serious health issues on two family members (thank God my daughter's heart is normal and she should eventually grow out of her problem), major job uncertainty on my part, and my wife nearly filing for divorce due to all of the above, the house situation completely fell apart - leading me to take what was left of the money from my bass bone, CC tuba, F tuba, electric bass, silent brass mutes, ipod, bullworker, GC games, and everything else that was sold and work a deal with Walter on his magnificent K2001.
Although I will not argue the fact that a few pics posted within the thread would help this sale, you can't go wrong doing business with this man.

I had my eye on Ken's $695 bass bone for a while too.
My wife made it clear that if I bought anything else she would smash everything I own.
She means it too.
If I can get the Kali to play small enough, I will probably sell the Weimar.

The 2001 looks sorta like a 1291; would that be a decent comparison (size-wise anyways)?
Nope, much bigger, close but not quite a Holton/2165.
BTW, the specs on the Tuba Exchange website are far off. The correct specs for the K2001 CC (as if specs mean Jack Squat) are:
Bore: .788", 4th-5th valve .827" (5th valve is a Rotax rotor)
Bell diameter: 19-1/2"
FWIW, a
good D.S. is a good 4/4 horn. Unfortunately there were enough stinkers to kill their reputation.
Back to Walter's stuff after hijacking this thread, does anyone know who makes the Tuba Exchange stenciled gigbags?

FWIW, playing "BIG" on a small horn often is perceived as sounding louder than playing a comparable "BIG" on a large horn. Loud on most BAT's is deep and full, loud on most pee-shooters will peel paint.
Just buy an older 2165 with the tonering, heavy bell, and heavyweight valvecaps and be done with it. If Warren couldn't break the sound on one of those, you probably couldn't either (but you could have a lot of fun trying

)
