SOLD

Post by arpthark »

edit: ALL SOLD

Wurzbach (Chinese) 4v BBb: Older Chinese horn. Pretty decent player! Some lacquer wear and evidence of some past repairs. I'd call this a large 3/4 or small 4/4 size tuba. Maybe a 7/8 size? $600 + shipping. Includes fair condition zippered case. (Lincoln Continental wheels not for sale!)

Feel free to make an offer.

Would prefer not to ship but can certainly do so at buyer's risk and cost. Would prefer local pickup in southeast CT or can meet you in the New England/NYC/NJ area.


Thanks!
Blake

SOLD: Conn CC Frankentuba: This is an interesting contraption that I purchased from the person who did the modifications. This was a Conn 10J cut to CC with a 3-valve Reynolds valve section added and a fourth rotary valve also added, operated by the pinky like a normal 4th valve. It's a pretty clever mechanism. 19"-ish bell. Plays pretty well with surprisingly good intonation. 3rd partial G rides a bit low. First piston has a solder rattle. Would be a great practice tuba to learn CC fingerings on. $699 + shipping.

SOLD: No-name German BBb: Great little horn with a custom copper leadpipe. Excellent intonation, super lightweight. I really like it but don't have a use for it right now. Full ad here: https://www.tubaforum.net/viewtopic.php?t=5100
Asking $600 + shipping.

SOLD: Couesnon 3v BBb: Valves work great but some folding and a small hole in the bell. This is a small 3/4 size tuba. $250 + shipping

Lots of interest in various items but the Conn Frankentuba is still available. I'm open to offers and can provide video/audio as needed.
