Howdy folks...
I'm moments away from sending this thing up to Tony Clements to sell, and thought I'd give the BBS one more shot...
I bought this horn in the fall of '94 from Bob Tucci when I was over in Germany. It's in great shape, and has been a "closet case" for the last four years - i.e., it only gets taken once a year for Tuba Christmas. I had a slightly smaller leadpipe put on it, which helped center up the low register and put some zip into the sound. Intonation's solid, and there aren't any "weird" notes on the horn. It comes with a really nice top-loading gig bag.

Dave Fedderly guessed between $7K and $7.5K, and I'd be happy with $7K. Please feel free to email me with any questions.
