No trades.

This MW 2141 Eb is in excellent condition and comes with a brand new (never out of the house) Miraphone top-loading gig bag (which fits perfectly). This horn has a .748" (.768") bore and a 17 1/4" bell. Silver plating is 100%, no wear spots. I can detect two dents - one on the outside of the top bow (pictured) and one on the outside of the top of the 5th valve slide (not pictured because it's smaller than a BB). I did everything I could to emphasize the top bow dent photographically for disclosure purposes, but I would definitely call it minor (smaller than my pinky fingernail and quite shallow). Four non-compensating pistons and one rotary valve means it blows free and open compared to the Besson 983 this horn replaced for me. This definitely falls in the "do it all" category of Eb tubas.

Horn is located in Reston, VA. $5,700 plus shipping. Did I mention no trades? If you pick it up I'll throw in a hard case. Baltimore Brass has a used lacquer one with no case for $5,995 in comparable condition, for reference.

Yep. I just zoomed in on one of the posted photos. It looks like their fairly normal engraving.
