For anyone looking, great deal on a CC

Post by bisontuba »

Hi-
This is a general announcement for anyone looking for a F tuba.
Note: Lacquer F is sold...

Hi-
This is a general announcement for anyone looking to buy a F tuba.

As some of you probably know, I am a 'satellite office' for Big Mouth Brass tubas through Rob Philips of Buckeye Brass in Columbus, who now distributes them.
I have two demo BMB F tubas here...one silver, one lacquer. Rob in Columbus has 7 or 8 BMB F tubas. All F tubas are 4 piston, 1 rotor.
Rob has decided to have a screaming super F Tuba Sale!
The sale is for BOTH silver & lacquer..you pick...with hard case, gig bag, and mthpce ...for $3000 each plus shipping!!!
It is a screaming deal for tuba players.
Contact myself or Robb at Buckeye Brass in Columbus (buckeyebrassandwinds.com) for this once in a lifetime pricing on F tubas.

Tnx
Mark

PS. Also have a screaming demo CC & too.

I haven’t been by Rob’s shop in a few months. Did he end up doing a lot of the upgrades and fine tuning to them and the rubber band upgrade to the 5th?

What, a steel spring instead of the custom Richard Barth Elastomeric High-Hysteresis Self-Damping Valve Return system?

I am really glad those are piston tubas and not rotaries because otherwise I'd have to slap my hand as it reached for the credit card.

There's a pretty little 180 on the normal for-sale board, if that helps.

Thanks, but nope....unless I get something like a used Bubbie newer version, my tuba days are over. I can't lift them any more.
