Summary

I want to start of by saying that some of you may have already seen the horn that I am going to put up for sale, and a lot of you were interested in it. I posted it a while ago, under the name "Figg" (I dont remember my password or email I use for it, so I had to make this new one).

Let me clear the air a bit, because from what I saw, some started to think that my post was fake. My post was not fake. I am not going to get into detail, but in the time that I was trying to sell that horn, a lot of personal issues occurred, and when I thought they were over, they came back and I just didnt have the time to get this out.

All of those problems are gone and I now have the time to sell this. I assure you nothing will happen and when you message me, you will definitely get a response. So here it goes...

Horn Details

I am selling my Jupiter 584L C tuba. It is a 5 valve lacquer horn (with what looks like to be a rose brass leadpipe). I bought this new in February of 2015. It has served me well. In my opinion, it has a very nice bottom end. Here is the information;

Concert Model, 5 Valve (4 Piston + 1 Rotor), .732" Graduated Bore, flat whole step 5th valve slide, stainless steel pistons, mechanical-link tapered rotary valve, lacquered brass body, nickel silver outer slides, 17.4" bell, ABS molded case (KC-96AC),

I have had some modifications done to the horn. Here is some information on that.

The receiver was never actually fit for an american or euro shank mouthpiece. The receiver is now modified to fit an american shank mouthpiece. Also, I replaced the valve buttons with red buttons made by Martin A. Wilk. Original valve buttons have been sold for a while now.

Im going to be taking pictures of the horn again to show the current condition. There are some added dings. In this deal, you will get;

- Jupiter 584L
- Gard Gig Bag (the inside fabric is ripped. I have been told that it can be replaced but I dont know)
- Jupiter hard case

The hard case is in ok condition. The hard case has been used a lot unfortunately. The wheels are ok but there is a crack at the top of the case which happened while loading the tuba for a concert (the guy didn't care, he just threw everything he saw on the truck).

Price

After thinking about it, I was a little too generous with the price, for this being a horn that is one year old. I was encouraged to price it right. So I am pricing it at $3250.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you are interested or have any questions, you may email me, or send me a message. I get it if the interested people back away from this with the concern that this could be another joke. But as I said, everything is a ok, and I am looking to move this.

Pictures to come tomorrow, or you may refer to the old post to get a gist of it. viewtopic.php?f=4&t=67027&hilit=Jupiter+584L+C" target="_blank" target="_blank" target="_blank" target="_blank" target="_blank" target="_blank

Thank you.

I tried to be as detailed as I could. It is a great horn for those starting college in my opinion. Email me or PM me if you have any more questions.

Bump

These tend to be very good reliable horns, very good price for a great all around CC tuba. Anyone looking for their first CC or maybe just something a little smaller should really look into this.

You know, I was thinking...

I think it's best if I stop finding the "right price," and just placing it where I had it before I stopped selling it. Price is back at $3000 flat. No OBO, etc.. This price includes shipping.

It passed me to say;

I can throw in a G&W Alan Baer original C mouthpiece, plus two etude books for $100 more when purchased. That'll be your call.

My apologies for the one day bump.

You are right.

The tuba is located in Pennsylvania.

Bumpy bump

SOLD

That horn was a steal. The person who got it is one lucky person
