Hello,
I am selling my HB-50 with case. Purchased in 2001 from Custom Music in Detroit. In great shape,It has been cleaned.
I also have a 4/4 Rudi CC 5 valve from 1998, purchased from Custom Music, Detroit ,MI.
A 1959/1960 5/4 Rudi 5 valve raw brass CC played by Bob Tucci, John Mac Enultey, St Louis Symphony.
I also have a 2011 Meinl Weston # 6450 "Bear" hand made.
These tubas have been played, I am sure there are very small dents. But, none in the crucial parts of the tubing. I am not crazy about shipping, I am located in KC, MO.
I am retired and they are gathering dust,they need to be played.
If you are interested please contact me at: sscadie@aol.com
Thanks,
Steve

The MW 6450 has been sold.

The Rudi 5/4 CC with a factory 2nd valve trigger is still available.
After going back and double checking dates the tuba is from the mid to late 60's. It was brought to the US by Dan Perantoni.
John Mac Enulty played it in the St Louis Symphony in the mid/late 70's. I purchased in 1983 and played it in KC until the late 90's when I switched to the HB-50.
The linkages were replaced by Miraphone in LA. The lead pipe was replaced a couple years before I set it aside. The horn was cleaned last week, the lead pipe and all slides are in great shape. There are a few dents in the bottom bow, none in crucial places.
I haven't had much luck downloading pictures, please email me for pictures.
Thanks,
Asking $8500.00
