SOLD

Post by Ltrain »

True to the original Conn Helleberg, this is a DEEP funnel cup with an open backbore. It was perfect on my bigger tubas, but a bit overpowering on the smaller-bore instruments I'm playing currently.

*Rim not included / listing is for cup and shank only!* This rig will work with any Parker/Sellmansberger/Houser rim you have our you can buy separately.

The cup is plated in gold-colored titanium. Excellent condition (no obvious signs of use, very clean). Costs $110 new.

The shank is plated in black-colored titanium (super-rare). However, there is a visible insertion ring due to the matte black plating, but this will be hidden by your receiver. It's in otherwise excellent condition. $95 new.

Shipping (US48) and suede mouthpiece pouch included! (Located in Brooklyn, NY).

Full specs for this model and list of compatible rims here: https://sep.yimg.com/ty/cdn/yhst-582095 ... 1587047891&" target="_blank" target="_blank" target="_blank" target="_blank" target="_blank

COVID-19 disclaimer: this mouthpiece has been triple sterilized with hot water and dish soap, detailed with Clorox wipes, and finished with wintergreen medical-grade isopropyl alcohol prior to shipping. If you'd like a video of me sterilizing it prior to shipping, I'm happy to do so (for the buyer).
