Backshot almost doesn't look real. Cool horn.

I emailed with the owner, seemed legit. He had it on Facebook marketplace and marked it as sold the other day so I suspect it may be gone.

That looks like the body that @martyneilan used to create his BAT. Very cool!

It really does! Mine has the 19.5" bell flare and MITSCHING engraved (maybe stamped) on the bell.

If you took away that big ol' spaghetti mess of main tuning slide, I bet it would be in C, like (the tuba formerly known as) B.A.R.T.

Iirc, Kalashen was an import/store name out of NY. There were others besides B&F (also iirc), but that's the one that comes to mind with Kalashen.

Cool horn. It looks like Kalashen from what I've seen of other horns with that marque. It's more conical in the bell than some others. I'd be up for checking it out, but I've got one kaiser now that I need to play more and no room for another. Good luck to whoever gets it.
