SOLD -- MW 2145

Post by seanvolution »

I am selling my Meinl Weston 2145 (4/4 CC tuba with 4 Big Valve pistons and 1 rotor). It has a beautiful, dark sound, good pitch, and is easy to handle in the extreme registers. It has a small number of dings, a noticeable dent in the bottom bow that I have not been compelled to fix (pictured below), and is missing a bit of lacquer.

This tuba comes with:
  • MTS hard case
  • Miraphone gig bag
The price is $6,000. I will consider trades for a rotary F, cimbasso, or big BBb. Please PM or email me: sean dot whitaker at gmail dot com.

Bump for a great horn. I bought a 2145 about a year ago and love it. Response and tone are great and being a 4/4 its very versatile in the high register.
