Bump. Some interested parties, but nothing has solidified. This would be a perfect tuba for a college student or pro looking for a do-it-all CC.

Great looking tuba that won't let you down.

Quite a few times I have thought about selling my expensive stuff and happily living with o e of these. Kind of an on-again, off-again idea... Currently in off-again mode.

Thanks Bort. Yes - GREAT tuba that will not let you down - this is about the most plug-and-play horn I have ever owned. Really looking to downsize to a large Eb, so I am clearing inventory.

I currently have three tubas and one fiancee. I need to turn that into a 1:1 ratio. :oops:

There's always the option of going the other way; 3:3=1:1.

3 fiancees would be far more expensive and far more trouble than 3 tubas. :)

Kind of wish I was in "on-again" mode. Plug and play is SO true about these!

I need to turn that into a 1:1 ratio.
Yet so many of them will stand in front of a closet with 30 pairs of shoes and 40 handbags complaining, "I don't have anything to wear that looks right." and then in the next breath say, "Why do you need more than one tuba?"

Thank god I waited until I found one that doesn't mind me owning a bunch of tubas and actually likes to hear me practice. As for the plethora of shoes and handbags.... my wife always looks nice when she leaves the house, and cute when she is working around the house.

I wish Arthpark and his fiancée a long and happy marriage.
