Post by bgossett3665 »

Hello Everyone,

I'm selling a Besson 995 5v CC for $7,500 plus shipping! This is a great horn that works with any ensemble, and if i played more CC tuba I would definitely keep it, but I just play a lot of F & Sousa these days.

I'm willing to consider trades/trade plus cash for a big F Tuba, and I'm really looking for a Kurath or Wilson 3200!

Located: Greater Washington D.C. Area(Hyattsville, MD)

Comes with:

Alteri Gig Bag
Besson Hard Case
Sellsmansberger Light weight Caps & Springs
Factory Caps & Springs
2 Tuning Slides(Short & Long)


Purchase history & Damage:

Bought new from Dillon Music in 2014

2nd Valve Stem is detached


Custom Work:

Vented/Ported all the valves. (Done by Joe Sellsmansberger)

This is a gorgeous horn with a lovely sound! We had the opportunity to try it out last week on a visit to DC, and it played beautifully. Highly recommend if you are in the market for a rich sounding CC to check it out.
