SOLD Used Sousaphone Bits: For Sale

Post by Matt Walters »

ALL BITS ARE SOLD My newly retired wife found a stash of tuba/sousaphone parts I had forgotten about. I don't see any more sousaphone playing in my future so these are now up for sale. Prices include Conus 48 states US Post Office Shipping. Add $15 if you want FedEx shipping. For payment I'll accept a good check from someone I know but prefer PayPal "Friends and Family". Contact me via private message.

$45 King sousa bit set in lacquer. Both the mouthpiece bit with the thicker ring and the gooseneck bit with the thinner ring.

$70 Mixed set of 3 bits. 1st is standard King mouthpiece (American shank) bit. 2nd accepts American shank mouthpiece but fits into many smaller Euro receivers like old Besson and old Eb sousaphones/tubas. 3rd bit may be an original York. It accepts the larger Euro shank mouthpiece and is Euro sized on the other end, too. Please note there is a crack in the seam of the shank (Again old York .750 sousaphone?) and will need to be re-soldered. You can mix and match these three so that you can use an American shank mouthpiece on 3 different shank size sousaphones.

$150 if you want ALL THE BITS pictured and they weren't sold prior.
