-----~sold~-----
1965 Conn 25J 6/4 BBb with upright bell: $1695 + shipping

20171105_112251 sm2.jpg
Moderate dings and scratching throughout the body, only one bigger than a tuba player's thumb (see pics). Worst area of scratching is in the outside of bell stack/leadpipe area below the bell collar, probably from watches, stands, life, etc.
(see pics)

Upright bell has 5 silver dollar-sized patches and one penny-sized patch.

Serial number K28XXX makes this a 1965 Elkhart horn. Lacquer finish is about 95%, great original finish for a 50+ year old horn. Valves have plenty of plating and work very smoothly. Slides all move, of course. Plays like a good example of a 2XJ, some adult fingerings required.

No cases for the body and upright bell. This tuba is located in Tucson, AZ. Shipping to CONUS by Greyhound Package Express, $199.

The Tuba Tamer is not included. I will include one tuning bit, but no mouthpiece. I do have several American shank mouthpieces available if you need one.

Lots more pics here: https://goo.gl/photos/DonMfZMrx61D3uZU6

$1695 + shipping, PayPal or trade in full/part for rotary BBb tuba.
-No, I will not sell the upright bell separately.

Thanks for looking,
Eric L.

Price reduced and off eBay for a few days while I get my fees back from a non-paying "buyer". Grrr.

Please make me an offer on this so I can avoid the eBay fun again.
