a cheaper grade of 2341 knockoff...??

[bloke]

The hardware looks Taiwanese, to me...

...including the pot metal water keys...

Even the better-made knockoff: I'd only be in for one of those for a couple grand (nice condition), because - biding one's time - genuine King 2341 tubas (in nice shape) show up for this same price.

What say y'all ?

I would sure love to get my hands on it just to see how good or bad it is but I would never buy a horn blind with no info other than "some flavor of Chinese knockoff"

Those newer 2341s are the only BBb tubas I really like playing these days too, but 3500 considering what else I can find in that range seems steep

It looks pretty though :)

Buy this in addition to the Accent branded Thor!

I clicked on this thread, and then I clicked on your link. As I type this, the 4-valve knock-off is $3,500, and up in the right-hand corner is a real-deal King 4-valve for $2,995: https://www.ebay.com/itm/305028737496
