Bump for updated location and price;
Looking to sell my Meinl Weston 2155:
5/4 size (I would call it a large 4/4 after playing a PT-6 for several years)
CC tuba
4 piston steel valves .748"-.787" bore
5th rotary valve (.807") thumb activated
17.5" bell diameter
Silver Plate
Not sure of manufacture date, but:
Serial number on lead pipe is 004629
Serial number on valve block is 024176
I have owned this horn since 2008; been played mainly in a brass band setting but this horn faired well in both orchestra and other wind ensemble settings. All slides and valves (just installed new valve guides) move freely. Only shows minor love. Asking $7,500obo (within reason, please) for both horn and MW flight case. Horn is located in Southern California. Would prefer not to ship but would be willing to meet within 100 miles.
Photos available upon request.

Hello!
Ive got my own MW 2155, and the guides are wearing down enough to cause some problems occasionally. Can you buy replacements online, or do they have to be custom made?
