**sale in progress

Very good condition Yamaha YBB321 BBb tuba with original wheeled case in good condition.
$2995 plus shipping to CONUS only from Tucson, AZ. Reasonable offers will be considered.

This horn has been recently shop serviced, and is ready to go.
Larger 4/4 size tuba at 40" tall and well-built.
Specs per Yamaha:
Key Bb
Body Yellow brass
Bell Diameter 443mm (17 1/2")
Bore Size 18.5-19.5mm (0.728-0.768")
Height 1018mm (40.079")
Valves 4 top pistons

I don't think this horn has been played much in its life, because the slides and valves are still very tight. You definitely need to use light oil on the pistons.

There are moderate amounts of small dings and some areas of scratching. Overall it looks very nice.

I'm only selling because I have a different horn of the same model that I like slightly better.


Thanks for looking,
Eric L.

**sale in progress.

On the way to the auction site. Offers welcome..
:arrow: This horn is super clean, does not appear to have been a school horn; has not been trashed, taken apart, and put back together.

I would rate the finish with various small dings and some areas of scratching at about 8.5 to nine out of 10, depending on how picky you are. Mechanically it's a 9.5 or 10 out of 10.
Very nice overall.

These horns project very well. My section mate turned around when I was playing this and said "damn, that thing really projects". Yup. 8)
