Older Marzan 'slant-rotor' 4V BBb tuba - Sold!

Post by PCPettit »

Please Note: This Tuba has been sold and is no longer available.

My older brother has a Marzan 'slant-rotor' 4V BBb tuba for sale. It was purchased sometime in the early 80s, but was likely built between 1969 and 1972 in the Bohm & Meinl factory in Germany under the guidance of Fred Marzan. The tuba is in good playing condition, but is definitely a little banged up and otherwise showing its age. Valves are all in good working order although one could stand to be restrung. Tuning slides mostly work - one or two may need a little TLC.

The Tuba is in Woodland Hills (Los Angeles), California and is being offered for local sale only. (i.e. we prefer not to pack and ship it.) Asking $2500 or best offer.

I've attached some photos, but I will send higher resolution versions and others to you directly on request.

Thanks - Peter Pettit
