The horn is located in South Bend, Indiana. I can work out travel on a case by case basis for interested buyers. I would prefer not to ship, this would be at the buyers expense.

I used this horn for my undergrad recitals and it performed wonderfully. What I love about the Petrushka tubas is how open and easy the low range is. The trigger on the main tuning slide allows for pitch accuracy without sacrificing tone quality. Unfortunately I no longer play it and it feels criminal to have it sit in my closet. This instrument was shipped to me overseas and unfortunately had some bell damage when it arrived. I had this expertly rolled out, the only indication of the damage is the discoloration in the lacquer. I am happy to provide more images if requested.

Asking is $8500 OBO.
