MP Spring Cleaning

Post by pwhitaker »

I have the following MP’s for sale:

Conn Helleberg 7B
Schilke Helleberg II - SOLD
Miraphone C4 (the original style -very old MP)
Miraphone TU33 (came with the 1291)
Marcinkiewicz N1S and N3S
Bach 30, 24AW, 22 and 18
Giardinelli 24AW and 25 (a great smaller horn MP)
-----------------------------------------------
Gold Pt-88+ (mega)

The MP’s above the line can be had for $50 apiece.
The PT-88+ is $125. (half price).

The price includes shipping within the continental U.S.
If you don't like the MP you can send it back for a full refund.

None of them have any dings on the rim surface, but have been used at one time or another (some of them 35+ years ago) in gigs and practice. The C4 is a little ratty looking but is still playable and is probably a collector’s item.

Some of them are a bit tarnished – nothing that a little Wright’s Silver Polish won’t cure (another reason to like gold, SS and titanium – I hate to polish MP’s.)

If interested you can either PM me or contact me at pwhitaker@jhaweb.com

Update

The C4 has found a new home.

I discovered an old Conn Helleberg (1980's) which I used to use for dixieland. No dings and shank is ok.

The prices above are negotiable.
