A couple of BBb and Eb Tubas Helicons starting at $450

Post by Blechblaser »

Hi dear group members,

Because I don't want you all bombed by separate listings, I will make a listing below with all Eb and BBb Tubas and also BBb, Eb and F Helicons that I collected in the past time and I'm wanting to sell. The instrument have all been maintained well and are in good and playable condition.

BBb Tubas:

- Meister Dotzauer 6/4 BBb Kaiser Tuba, lacquered, 4 valves. €2000
- Lignatone (Cerveny) 6/4 BBb Kaiser Tuba, nickel plated, 3 valves. €950
- Gebr. Alexander Mainz 4/4 BBb Tuba, nickel plated, 3 valves. €900
- Gebr. Alexander Mainz 4/4 BBb Tuba, lacquered, 4 valves. €2100
- Conn 21J BBb Tuba, lacquered, 3 short-action valves. €2500
- Conn 20J BBb Tuba, unlacquered, 3 short-action valves. €2500
- Roland Meinl 4/4 BBb Tuba, lacquered, 4 valves. €1100
- Bohm & Meinl Walter Nirschl 4/4 BBb Tuba, lacquered, 4 valves. €850

- Lignatone (Cerveny) 3/4 BBb Tuba, nickel plated, 3 valves. €650

- Lignatone 3/4 Eb Tuba, nickel plated, 3 valves. €375

BBb Helicons:
- Moeremans 6/4 BBb Monster Helicon, nickel plated, 3 valves. €2250
- Altrichter 4/4 BBb Helicon, unlacquered, 3 valves. €1300
- Couesnon Monopole 6/4 BBb Monster Helicon, nickel plated, 3 valves €1100

Eb/F Helicons:
- Altrichter F Helicon, unlacquered, 3 valves. €700
- Voigt Eb Helicon, unlacquered, 3 valves. €550

- St. Petersburg Eb Helicon, nickel plated, 3 valves. €400
- C. Mahillon Eb Helicon, nickel plated, 3 valves. €350

So, that was it. Because this is an enormous amount, pictures can't be added. Luckily I have a website which you can check out, where additional info is put onto every instrument: https://brassshop.wordpress.com/

If you find something interesting, don't hesitate to contact me. Prices are an indication and mostly negotiable. Shipping is possible for most of the instruments, contact for shipping costs and I can give you a estimate.

Instruments can be picked up in the Netherlands, near the German border.

Would be around €250, depending what instrument it could be cheaper.

Well, maybe you find something else that desires you more. In the Netherlands, these horns are rare and more valuable.

I like your screen name.

In the 1970's - in high school - a handful of us defined ourselves as "Blechbläser", and never explained it to anyone (as there was no such thing as "google", obviously.
