York Eb 3-Valve, Bell-front Tuba

Post by ValveSmoke »

Continuing to slim down the tuba supply...I've now listed my York, Eb, 3-valve, bell-front tuba on eBay at:

The horn works great with clean, tight, quick valves. It was unfortunately dropped from a shelf by the prior owner and they did less than ideal work on the resulting squashed tubing, primarily on the top bow and the bow adjacent to the valves (see pictures on eBay). In the hands of a good technician, this horn should be able to be ironed out and refinished. That said, I've used it on recordings and the sound and action is good. Takes a small shank, bass tuba mouthpiece.
