The model was referred to as the "Monster" tuba.
It's a 3 piston valve instrument that plays very well. I replaced it a while back with a Yamaha.
It's in very good condition for it's age.
Have original Bill of Sale with letter signed by C. G. Conn. I'm the second owner.

Asking $900.00

Have Gard top of the line gig bag.....would sell for $100.00

Beautiful tuba! Curious -- what was the original price in 1913?

I'm glad you aren't local to me... or else that tuba would magically show up in my house, and I'd have some explaining to do with my wife. :)
