OK, lower price: $2500 including shipping CONUS.

Yes,
The time has come, the Walrus said,
To talk of many things:
Of shoes — and ships — and sealing-wax —
Of cabbages — and kings —
And why the sea is boiling hot —
And whether pigs have wings.
It is time to sell the Bessophone. You can read about it here:

My tech has gone completely through the tuba, taking out dents, taking the rotors out and making sure everything is top notch, refreshing bumpers, etc. No, it is not the prettiest tuba, but it plays solid. But I am playing my new Jupiter JTU1110 now, and this tuba needs to be played. Pix taken in the last few days attached. Tuba Exchange gig bag included. Let me know if you want pix from a different angle. Thanks.

Re: It Is Time to Sell the Bessophone - Lower Price - $2,500

Price now $2,500.00 I still do not want to ship, but I will. With inflation, cost of shipping has skyrocketed. If you want to ship, please add $300. Thanks.
