ISO: Tuba, see descriptions for details

Post by rfoster0508 »

Hey all,

I’m looking at buying a tuba within the next couple of months. My price range is $3,000. The tuba is technically a Christmas gift for me. I would prefer a C or E-flat tuba, front action valves are a want but not a deal breaker. I understand that these don’t come very often. I have been looking through all of the standard issue websites.

Thanks,

Cody Foster

I have a very nice Marzan 'slant-rotor' CC that fits your budget. Email for details and images.

I'd go with the Marzan above. I've played a piston and slant rotor BBb and both were very nice tubas. I don't think you can go wrong with the CC version either, especially for that price!

Go with this horn. Dan's horns are hard to beat after he works on them.
