Anyone missing a B&S CC tuba?

Post by MackBrass »

Here is one on ebay but it appears that it's being sold by a pawn shop in CA.

Hi Guys,

It is not that fact that there are dents, but it is an indication of how well the instrument was cared for over it's life. A well dented instrument likely, was not oiled & cleaned, and taken care of regularly.

I won't consider an instrument that is that riddled with dents & dings.

I believe this tuba was recently offered as a 5V Bb (without links for audio samples) on eBay...........my memory could be failing me, but I'm pretty sure.

I think it was listed for considerably cheaper when they thought it was a B flat.
