Currently Off-Market: Eastman 836

Post by darth2ba »

Hello All,

I have decided to sell my Eastman 836. I’m the only owner. One minor ding and minor repair work on upper branch. I had my repairman install a Saturn water key on the main tuning slide, and float the lead-pipe.

Currently off market

Superfine red+black cordura gig-bag
MAW valves + Set of MAW valve caps
Custom PVAK kit for MAW valves
Original piston valves + original valve caps
Eastman hard case
(That’s a little over $2,000 of extras!)

Certified Cashier's Check or cash only.

Located in McMinnville, OR. I’m willing to ship this instrument at buyer’s expense. Meeting in-person is preferred. I’m willing to drive up to 8 hours (Ex: east to Boise, ID are or south near San Francisco, CA) to meet a serious buyer half-way.

Serious inquiries please email me at: ready “dot” tuba “at” gmail “dot” com

Cheers,
Joe

If selling the 836 and hard case (without the bag, allowing you to lower your price) becomes an option for you (due to a serious offer of that nature) I would be very interested in the gig bag. Please keep me in mind if this become a possibility. Thanks, Joe.

Due to upcoming playing obligations, and instructing the Seattle Cascades this summer, my 836 will be off the market until mid-August.
