Instruments for sale

[tclements]

Friends,

As I approach retirement age, and am playing less, I need to liquidate the instruments I have accumulated over the years. The prices below are my ASKING prices, but as I have found out late in life, EVERYTHING is negotiable. If you agree to pay my asking price I will pay for shipping. If we negotiate a lower price, please be prepared to throw in a couple hundred for shipping. If you fly into San Jose to play anything, you may stay here one night and we can work together to get the instrument shipped. Or, you can take it with you. Here is the list:

MW 6450 Baer Model (production) - $25,000 w/MW gig bag (if I can find it!) Anvil Case Available
MW Tuono - $13,000 - w/Cronkhite Gig bag. Anvil Case available
Yamaha F YFB 641 (the small one) main slide tuning trigger - w/Yamaha hard case - $8,000
Anton Dehmal 3+3 F tuba (perfect for Bydlo) - $5,000 with Altheri Bag
Hirsbrunner Euphonium HBS479 (Exclusiv Model) $8,000 w/Adams Sterling Silver bell. Original bell included. Hard Swiss Case
Gronitz Prototype CC/DD tuba. Built on a PCM - $5,000 - no case
Shires Bass Trombone - I don't know the model, but its specs are identical to a Bach 50B w/axial flow valves - Duo bore slide/ Hard Case - $5,000

All of these instruments are in outstanding shape, some are pristine. No dents, dings or scratches.

I can get you photos of all these instruments.

Send me an email if interested ttuba(at)comcast(dot)net

On the Gronitz, is the CC/DD valve a 6th valve on the tuba? If so, is it dependent? Wherever it is, I assume its trigger is set in the CC position (?).

Ladies and gentlemen, I assure you that Tony keeps all of his equipment in top playing shape. In many cases, he adds tuning triggers that REALLY WORK.

It's a 5 valve tuba that has the 5th valve as an ASCENDING valve. You can also set the tuba in DD, and the 5th valve is a normal flat whole tone valve.
