That's way too much work.

Oh, and can the OP post at least one really crappy cell phone pic or do I have to send my carrier pigeon for that?

No, it's not supposed to be funnay. However, it may be "funnay" in Ottawa.
If this pic is any indication, it might be fuhny in Baltimore.

Try those swallows from Monty Python and the Holy Grail...

they don't provide any tracking, but the horn won't fall from any great height.

Hi-
Can you do a video of you playing the tuba? Nothing major, just all the Bach cello suites while standing on your head...... :)

Wait a minute...

Why would anyone want your "tuba and case" when they could buy a good tuba with case instead, like this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/tuba-/251605999928???

And your Miney Fubar can't really be much of an upgrade. I mean, really...our buddy Leto doesn't have that listed anywhere on the OFFICIAL list of horns/players that won a job.

Oh, and I think the pigeon came through, but they didn't leave any pics. Is this on hold pending funds now or what?

Hello,

I am interested in the miney fubar Tuba that you have for sale. And the following are questions that I have concerning the horn:

* Would you happen to know the horn's serial number / manufactured date?
* Any damages to the horn that I should be aware of?
* Has there been any type of maintenance and/or cleaning done on the horn?
* From whom/where did you obtain the horn from?
* How long have you had the horn for?
* What was the horn mostly used for?

Thank-you,

What's the provenance of this instrument? I will only buy tubas that are claimed to have been owned by long dead famous tuba players as claimed by third parties passing along third hand info for which there is no valid proof of said claims. It would be really great if this tuba could be claimed to have been owned and played by Verdi with a back story that he was a closet tuba player so in love with the sound of the tuba that he could not stand to hear anyone but himself play one - and thus his required use of the cimbasso.
