*SOLD* Gronitz PF125 Silver Plate F Tuba FOR SALE

Post by justben »

4 Piston + Thumb Rotary Valve. Flat whole step 5th Valve. 19-20-21mm bore and 16.5" bell. Amado water key and pull rod on first valve slide. Minor plating wear at the wrist contact point on the front of the tuba. Plating is 98%. Small dings on bell and minor dent on player's side of top bow and bottom bow. None of these blemishes affect playability or response.

I have used this instrument for orchestra, quintet, and solo lit. It has been used in music festivals, solo competitions, and many recitals. It has been my main F tuba for 8 years. It is an outstanding instrument with wonderful color in the sound and a VERY easy low register. A top quality professional instrument. I will also include a leather Gard gig bag.

Here is how this instrument sounds on the Vaughan Williams Concerto Romanza: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmric-y-fQk" target="_blank" target="_blank

I'm asking $7800. Not looking for trades. The tuba is located in Ithaca, NY and I will drive a reasonable distance to meet a serious buyer. Contact me at jbenavidez@ithaca.edu" target="_blank" target="_blank or PM me if you are interested.
