FS: Besson "Prototype" Eb Tuba - SOLD

SOLD - $600
c. 1890 Besson "Prototype" Eb... this was the first one I've seen with a 4th valve... I've since seen a second.
I purchased and repaired this several years ago (not a restoration... different standard). The valves are unimaginably amazing... the horn plays amazingly. I've used it orchestrally several times, as well as for solos, 5tets and 4tets. I hate to part with it... but there's another project coming >:)
