FT: Accord Eb for cheap BBb?
Posted: Fri Jan 19, 2018 9:53 pm
Accord/Selmer Eb, matte finish with lacquer highlights and bell interior. 3 top action pistons, small bore but I don't know the precise measurement. Had it professionally cleaned, valves aligned, springs upgraded, and other minor tweaks as soon as I got it. It plays all the notes as well as I can play them, and I have a lot of fun doing so. Includes the same foam shell zippered case that all the other Chinese horns seem to have these days.

I Got this a couple of years ago to work my chops back up after a long hiatus, worked my way up to a 4v BBb sousaphone and want to go all in. Would like a BBb concert tuba for practice and home use, eventually some sit-down ensembles. Prefer rotor or front action pistons for superficial reasons and because that's what my friends have- YBB-103, 10j; 12j, Olds 099, what else is out there? Not opposed to adding cash for a nicer horn, but I don't particularly want to sell outright because I'm afraid I'd just spend the money on bills.
Located in Asheville NC, willing to host anyone who wants to come try it, willing to drive within reason for the right trade. I'm not in a huge hurry because I still enjoy the heck out of this horn, but looking to the future I know I'll get more use out of a comparable BBb. Thanks for reading!
