FOR SALE: Olds BBb Tuba (O-99?) - SOLD!

Post by J.c. Sherman »

FOR SALE: A real survivor! An Olds O-99 (?) 3-valve BBb (real Olds from CA) which survived Hurricane Sandy. Her valve section wasn't salvageable, and her leadpipe lost, so she has a King sousaphone valve section and Conn leadpipe and plays GREAT!

She's ready for smaller HS or any junior high players, but als for a BBb player looking for a quintet or strolling ax (carriage rings are like new). She's got a loads of life left, and all the parts are currently available. Bell has no cracks. :shock: It's a good, lightweight 7/8 tuba. Feels a LOT like playing a vintage Miraphone tuba (I have one).

$850 - OBO (plus shipping) takes her home. Think of the honor you could attach to playing "the hurricane survivor!" Or "Sandy!"

Let's give her a good life 2nd life!
