Need Advice

Post by bostich36 »

Hi all,

I'm an avid trumpet player and am interested in starting tuba. The only problem is that tubas (as most of you know) are expensive. I have a Wurlitzer Spinet and some other good quality musical equipment and was wondering if any knew of any companies that would be willing to trade musical equipment for a tuba?

-Thanks

What tuben said . . .

Around these parts, you have to pay to get a spinet hauled away. Even the used piano dealers don't want them. CL may be your best bet.

If it's a very old spinet in good condition it may be more valuable than a newer one. You might get someone in the know to appraise it.

Trumpet seems like it would be an excellent job to hold. More music, better music, etc, etc. Less to schlepp around too.
