Sovereign Euphonium

Post by Sasha Johnson »

For sale is a 1960's era Boosey & Hawkes Sovereign Euphonium. Excellent condition, easy response, great intonation, classic bright clear British euphonium sound. Played professionally, originally in the Royal Canadian Navy Band, subsequently in other professional orchestras and bands in Canada. Horn is available for trial in Montreal or Toronto. Hard case included.

Would prefer pick-up to shipping, but can ship at buyers expense. Price is $2750 USD. More information and photos available on request.

Thanks,

Seems I may have been misinformed about the vintage of this horn. Based on the serial number link above it looks like it hails from 1982, rather than the 1960's.

Hi, I'm wondering if this instrument is still for sale and, if so, what is the condition of the valve plating?

Thanks!
