Hi! I'm looking to buy a four valve recording bell tuba. I'm willing to spend around ~$2200 with shipping included in that bunch. I'm located in Utah. Thank you!

I have a wonderful silver Reynolds up for sale on Marketplace. It has three valves, good intonation, and was just serviced by Lee Stofer.

This is the horn to have. A recording bell tuba will pull you forward in your chair and fatigue your traps and delts. I know. I used to have one. With the slightly smaller bell than most, and lighter without the 4th valve, it won't cause fatigue as badly. This one has the Reynolds 1st valve slide mechanism restored and regulated. This way you can shove for flat fifth partial 2nd space C, and pull for 1+3 and 1+2+3 valve combinations, obviating the need for a 4th valve.

As much as I would love it, unfortunately my budget as shrank significantly since then, leaving me with only about ~$1000. I really appreciate it though!
