Schiller "Symphonic" BBb tuba. It's a 5/4 BBb tuba with 5 rotary valves. The tuba comes with both upright and recording bells, cases and the factory supplied mouthpiece.
The tuba has a few of the new JinBao "improvements" such as heavy duty paddles and better linkages and mini-balls. Valves are smooth and quick.
I bought this from another TubeNetter who is a professional military musician, and although it worked quite well for him, it did not work for me. being a weekend warrior, I need a tuba that is plug-and-play, and for me this one just wasn't.
My loss is your gain: this horn is only 2 months old, in near mint condition, and $500 less than the asking price from the dealer.
Has a few very minor scratches and tiny dings that are almost invisible from a few months of professional use. I've seen brand new horns with more damage on them. There is one small factory defect on the bottom bow where the lacquer didn't take.
Also the forward/recording bell is still in the factory plastic. I don't think it was ever used.
Price: $1895
What's included: The tuba w/upright and recording bells, cases and a mouthpiece.
Payment via PayPal or Venmo only.
