Joe, I wish I had one to measure for you. For anyone who can do this for Joe, I've weighed other tubas and things by standing on a scale with said object and weighing myself. Then, I weigh myself again without the object and subtract the difference.

My Mirafone 186 5U-CC weighs 20 lbs (without mouthpiece ) on my bathroom scale, 16.5 inch bell, serial #11904 purchased new in February, 1982. Also never refinished.
