Yep - I was at the mall this past weekend. The proprietor there said there was a more compact horn coming in. The previous 2 horns I know of were a very old Sanders(?) tuba and a big Holton sousaphone. They might be coming in from the same guy.

That is a pretty good price. Engraving is still readable. Some wear but looks pretty good. Great BIG sound for a 7/8 tuba. :tuba:
