*On Hold*B&S PT-4 CC FS/FT

Post by Bnich93 »

I have a B&S PT-4 4/4 5 rotor tuba that I am putting up for sale. It is a great horn and the only reason that I am selling it is so that I may upgrade to a larger horn. It has all 5 rotors vented as well as a first valve slide ring added. The work was done by Alan Baer IIRC. The horn was purchased new from Custom Music in 2008 by Kyle Turner, and then bought by me in late 2012.

The intonation is nearly point and shoot, the only noticeably questionable notes are Db below staff (2+4 w/ 4th slide pull) and G top of the staff (125 is in tune but I only bother for long notes). The nickle plating is wearing on the keys, and on the 3rd valve slide, where my hands are usually placed. There are some scratches of varying depth, but from the audience it looks spotless.

Asking $6500 with gig bag and possibly flight case(its in NY while im in GA). Also I am open to trades for 5/4 or especially 6/4 tubas with minimum 5 valves. I can add money on top if your horn is much more valuable but there may be more waiting for my loans to come through.

I heard Kyle play this a few times in NYC, and it sounded great!
