That is what I want, which is why I said "similar age and funkiness are fine." I have a beautiful compensating EEb at work that I would prefer not to lug home to practice on, or play in community band outside in the elements.

I've got this little beauty right here: https://imgur.com/a/bfI7Q

I'd been hoping to manifest a trade for a small BBb horn to facilitate practice for gigs that I play on a BBb sousaphone but haven't gotten any real bites (related post here:viewtopic.php?f=4&t=85594) - upright valves are tricky for me due to an old right-shoulder injury that flares up from my playing posture (I had no idea until I got that horn), so this thing only gets about 45 minutes of play time per week. I don't know what the logistics would look like, but if you're interested in the horn I'm down to chat about it.

side note- I also valued this horn at $600 when I first advertised it, though I've turned down a few cash offers because I know I'd just end up spending it on bills and be down a tuba :lol:
