I would like to find a used one but they seem to be so rare. Folks that have them must not want to give them up.

A recent Yamaha publication listed (and pictured) it right along with the others. I didn't even know there was such a thing until I saw that. I'd like to play one if they are in fact real, if not just out of curiosity.

Yes, they are even on their website with full specs, etc. But why would you want one when for less than half the money you can get a pre-cyborg King, the tuba on which it is copied, and which is, even if well used, is a better instrument with a larger bell and better intonation?
