Sold!
Retiring from most orchestral playing, time to start selling some tubas. First up is my main axe 1291 CC.
I've performed most of the big orchestral and movie literature in the past 10+ years on this instrument with the Charleston Symphony and Hilton Head Symphony Orchestras.
I installed a 1292 lead pipe several years ago and raised it off the bell. The original pipe is also included, uses standard American shank mouthpiece. The instrument centers and resonates beautifully.
I also added a ring inside the 1st tuning slide crook to make it easier to use the slide on certain notes by reaching through the instrument instead of over the top branch. I also realigned the 1st slide inner and outer tubes to match the crook dimension, it was originally assembled under stress. Played better without the brace so I left it out.
A couple of the tuning slides have inner tube extenders in them to keep the bore concentric (no step in the bore since the slides stay pulled out).
Includes Altieri gig bag.
Pictured are 3450 CC (left) and 1291 CC (right) for comparison.
Please see my Meinl Weston 3450 CC also for sale on this site. viewtopic.php?f=4&t=99567
I am a professional instrument repair technician with 25 years in the trade and am the author of "Guide to Brass Musical Instrument Repair" utilized at the repair schools and available online. This is my personal horn.
The instrument is located in Charleston, SC. Can ship from my shop if necessary, would send on pallet via freight.
