Bump. Serial number 22,XXX from the EEb bell and bottom bow donor tuba indicate it was made before WWI. This is really a great playing horn.

Beautiful tuba, Sam. These ones you have had for sale lately look extra nice. The cutting & resultant spacing looks very well balanced throughout. Anderson valves, wonderfully de-dented, all cleaned up. The satin appearance with bright ferrules is pretty neat detail on this one, too.

Unsolicited bump for Mr. Gnagey. Went down to visit him and ended up getting my horn cleaned. Deb, his wife, and he did an amazing job cleaning it. I tried this horn and it is great! I even remarked that in some ways, the response of this horn reminded me of a small version of my 6450. If you are looking for a versatile CC with even response, and a unique voice this is your horn. I took it through the full range of the tuba with ease. Looks as beautiful in person as it does in the pictures. Worth every bit of 8,000- possibly more.

We'll be moving to a new place in a few weeks. Since I want to move as few items as possible, I'll be willing to take somewhat less than my asking price. If you are serious about wanting this great horn make me a reasonable offer to consider. Just don't bother me with low-balls.
