FS: Eastman new 5v F tuba

Post by Salazarsam33 »

Hello everyone, it’s with a heavy heart I must put up my new Eastman F tuba. Since the university I just got accepted to has an F I can use, I need to think about moving expenses. This is by far one of the best F tubas I have played, and the best Eastman F I have tried out. Bought brand new from Milano music a couple months ago. This tuba has an amazing sound and intonation. Build quality is also exceptional, this tuna is simply a delight to play and handle.
It is modeled after the B&S symphony and comes with a shires version of the PT/RT 64

Tuba comes with hard case and platinum protec gig bag.
Asking price is 6,000
Tuba is located in San Diego, California

I briefly tried one while passing through at Park Ave. Music in San Jose. I was quite impressed. In fact, I liked it more than the 836 CC I briefly play tested. Then again, I'm more of a rotary valve guy. The infamous low C was fine on this model, and the low G just came flying out of the horn. I'm generally not big on F tubas, but I liked this one.
