How can anything get that dented? Not even the worst of the middle school vandals could have accomplished that. The seller is hoping to get $3,999? Give me a break.

Agreed. It doesn't quite look right for a Jumbo.KiltieTuba wrote:https://www.ebay.com/itm/264440200724" target="_blank
Proportions looks off and that bell engraving is strange: "REBUILT"
All the Jumbos that I've seen have had the extra guard wires around the outer bows. This thing just looks like a beat up 38K.
And what the heck is that "Rebuilt" business?
That's a new one.

That is a Frankenstein horn! Looks like it consists of a King Giant bell and Conn 38K body parts. The brace on the shoulder branch is older than the braces connecting the valve section to the body. With that asking price, it will be a permanent fixture on eBay.
