WTT: Eb for Eb
Posted: Sat Feb 18, 2017 1:31 am
Hello all.
I am throwing this out here:
I'm interested in trading my 1968 Besson New Standard compensating Eb w/15" bell for a comparable instrument with a 17 or 19" bell in very good condition.
The horn is in what I would consider pretty good shape for its age with some rough spots on the bottom bow. Valves need replating, bell is slightly out of round. Leadpipe has been modified to receive American shank mouthpieces. Horn plays well with all the standard quirks of comp Eb tubas (the blow is different when using the 4th valve). Really sweet, clear sound.
Will consider a trade plus cash to other party if we can come to an agreement. Not looking to sell outright.
Horn is located in Pensacola, FL.
I suck at the whole posting pics thing but have pics available to send via email. Please PM me with contact information and I will email you pics.
