For Sale Gronitz PCK $10,500 OBO

Post by GeorgeAlberti »

Hello Everyone,

I am selling my Gronitz PCK which has been my primary CC tuba since 2013. I have used this tuba in very large orchestras and in some very small chamber settings.

With this instrument I will also include a Cronkhite Gig Bag (made in 2013), and a Unitec Flight Case.

The horn is in Champaign, Illinois and will be in Chicago a few times the next few months. If you are interested in meeting to try this instrument send me an email at galbertibass at gmail dot com. Shipping is at buyer’s expense, but if you would rather pick up, I can meet you halfway (most places) in the CONUS.

Hi all,
I've played this horn a few times. Just a few things I noticed.

1) It has the normal tonal color of a PCK, but just a little darker and more bottom in the sound than my old PCK.
2) I loved the 4th valve wrap modification that got rid of the 90 degree bends right out of the 4th valve. Loved it so much, I had my PCK changed. It made the low register even easier because it didn't have the extra resistance.

Good luck with the sale!
