Posted: Mon Jul 11, 2005 2:31 pm
Hello,
I am offering my Martin/Dillon cut F tuba for sale. She is unlaquered, dates from 1922, has BEAUTIFUL engraving on the bell, also has USN engraved on the bell, Dillon music put on some multicolored valve buttons on, too. It has 5 vented valves (4+1), and lapped slides. Has a 17" bell, and a pretty large bore. It was once a 4 valve Martin Monster Eb, and has been owned by some famous tuba players. It has a really gorgeous sound and great response. VERY good low register. I have used this thing in EVERY playing situation from band to brass quintet to solo to orchestra.. its very versatile. It comes with a reunion blues gig bag. The horn is in pretty good shape considering its age only having a couple of dings in the bottom bow and a couple in the bell that arent visible.
I am asking $4000 obo for the tuba and gig bag. If you have any questions please send them my way.
Please email me for a high resolution picture, or click on the link for a lower resolution picture.
Thank you very much
