Hirsbrunner F tuba; HB-10 - SOLD

Post by Steve Oberheu »

Hello all!

I am putting my Hirsbrunner HB-10 F tuba up for sale. I am the only owner, having purchased the instrument new in 2000 in Switzerland. It has 4 pistons + 1 rotor on left hand (2-step 5th valve). Fifth valve has a slide kicker on the left thumb for low register intonation. Leadpipe was raised a few centimeters -- good for taller players. Al Baer's PVAK installed in 2011. It's a very versatile instrument. I have played this horn professionally in Europe, USA, Mexico, Japan, and Canada in a wide variety of settings.

**UPDATE** The horn is SOLD. Thanks for looking!

No current pics of the horn available, so here's video footage from better days:
