NO LONGER FOR SALE: Schiller Elite F Tuba

Post by tubagr8 »

Greetings all!
IMG_6368.jpg
I bought this tuba 2 years ago and used it to learn F tuba. Normally I use Eb, C or Bb tubas but made the investment just to become familiar with the instrument. It's dent free and just collecting dust in my basement. Normally this horn would sell for more than $2,500 but it's now for sale for less than half the price.

Schiller Elite F tuba.
5 Rotor Valves
$1,000 plus shipping from Zion, IL.
Includes a hard case.

The fifth valve slide is tuned to a flat whole step. I did consider having a new longer slide made but never got around to it. It does function as is.

Hi Dan:
Here is my situation. As retired teacher(band) laying out a grand at once is not practical I do have up to $2000 credit on Ebay.
I understand not wanting to get entangled in a strungout payment situation. I would be able to do a 2 or 3 payment plan starting now and make a payment on Feb. 1 and one on the 20th of Feb after which the tuba could be shipped.

If not, I understand.
