Mirafone 1291CC @ TMEA

Hello All,

FYI-I will have a new lacquer Mirafone 1291CC (case not included) for sale at the Holze Music booth this week at TMEA in San Antonio (booth 1641). We are fortuitously located near the front of the main exhibit hall and in close proximity to both Custom Music and Tuba Exchange. If you are in the market for a sweet little CC horn, please bring your mouthpiece and come by and toot on it all you want. I will be there almost always throughout the convention. If I'm not there, one of my associates can call me on the cell and I will be right there. Even if you aren't looking to buy, come by and say hi. The horn is here and ready to go home to someone ready to give it a good home and treat it right. Hope to see you there!
Asking Price-$8,499.00

The advantage is that this one is here and handy for anyone in San Antonio to try out and take home today, well, Thursday-Saturday at least. Price may also be negotiable.

I just talked with my good buds at Mirafone and I now have a Mirafone hard case to offer with the horn. It's slightly used, used only to transport show horns from convention to convention. Case will run you $399.00.

If you look around, you'll see a significant difference in the price of European-made instruments compared to this time last year. Unless the dollar makes a big turnaround, this trend will continue.

Well, I was just saying that it's not your horn, and whoever is selling it has the right to choose the price. Since you're not interested in buying it, I think haggling over prices IN PUBLIC is not in very good taste.
