Buy it now is US $2,499.00. Surely it's worth that. Lots of folks think their 4 valve 186s are worth more.

I know this seller. Although I have not played the horn in question, I have played many of his frankentubas and other projects that he has added a 5th valve to, and they were superb. He's an excellent, practical craftsman and an excellent tuba player as well. I am sure this horn will not disappoint anyone looking for an all-around CC.

I think jazz players might call that a flat fifth...

Oh no!
The valves don't all rotate the same way!
