Why don't you call Dan Oberloh and ask him what he thinks?

It sounds like your new tuba will need more work than Tony's did. So, I would think you are talking about several thousand dollars and a lot of time away from you. This type of work is not something Dan or anyone else can do in a few days. And, Dan may be so busy that he couldn't even get to it for a while. Shipping cost will be negligible compared to repair/refurbishing costs.

I'd prefer to enjoy playing it rather than have it sit at a repair shop waiting for it's turn with a torch. Also, I would hate to put a lot of money into refurbishing a horn -- before I played it -- only to that I didn't like it.
