Pretty neato! I’m thinking that bell was trimmed down.

I also think I’ve seen this tuba before…

That really is pretty cool. Oil ports on each valve. Very nicely done work.
Some old Yorks, Martins, and perhaps a King rotary valved CC

It’s been around for several years and I’ve seen pics of it as well.

Very nice work done on this instrument.

In the CL ad it gives some background and info including that the bell was indeed cut down. Pretty interesting work!
