arpthark's post-holiday clean out (tubas, trombones, mute, random stuff)

[arpthark]

Hopefully over the next couple weeks I will get around to cleaning up and posting everything I have for sale here. If anything speaks to you, please let me know and I can prioritize photos and cleanup. Most large items will need to be picked up here in southeastern CT or I can meet you in the New England/NYC Metro area. For shipped items buyer will pay actual shipping cost.

Send me a PM or email beanhillbrass at gmail. Thanks!

- 1969 Conn 73H 2 valve dependent bass trombone w/ D slide, recently repaired broken main brace, cosmetically rough but plays great. $1,200

- Olds Ambassador tenor trombone. Sturdy little horn, pics posted elsewhere on this site. $100, can ship

- "Horton" cornet, probably Czech, not a terrible instrument, with case, $35, can ship

SOLD: - Conn 28K 4v Eb sousaphone, silver, good shape, needs polishing, no neck or bits (sorry!) $1,200

- SOLD: King 606 tenor, used a lot! Lots of lacquer wear and "acidic hands" brass wear at contact points. Nice slide action but missing a bit of chrome. Serial 899xxx points to 1982 or so. Nice little horn. $100, can ship

- SOLD: King 606 tenor, newer with the bell lacquer-stripped. Nice slide, no wear. Some evidence of past repair. From the 90s or early 2000s based on engraving and serial numbers on handslide. $100, can ship

- Kruspe 4v rotary BBb, 100+ years old, 5/4 "mini Kaiser" size (45" tall), string linkage, patches, still needs a bit of dent work and cleaning up to be a looker, $1,500 as-is SOLD

I am passing through the east coast to Richmond, VA at the end of March. Let me know if you'd like to meet up for any of this stuff during that time frame.

Hi
I'm interested in one of the Reynolds Medalist Trumpets.
Could you send pictures? What would you charge for shipping to Texas?

I tried to PM you, but apparently I don't post often enough to be given access to that feature.

Thanks

Down to the bottom of the barrel here. Help me clean out my workshop. Don't be afraid to make an offer on anything.

I also have a silver Miraphone 186 BBb (late 70s Mirafone) in rough cosmetic shape listed elsewhere on this site that will be $1,500 once the receiver situation is sorted out.

Could listen to offers on a silver Wessex Strauss (PT-15 copy) that I have, but in no hurry to sell that one. Nice tuba.
