King Pit Tuba Model 1280 - where can I find one?

Post by Kontrabasstuba »

Good evening,

I'm looking for a King Pit Tuba Model 1280 for my collection.
Does anyone have an idea where I could get one?

I welcome any offers.
Thank you, and take care.
Daniel

Hi Daniel, There was a guy on here called "Tubahed" up in canada who was selling one a little while back and another guy who called himself "Kiltetuba" who had one for sale. Sorry I don't have more information. Best of luck finding one. Ed
