Any luck so far?

Was going to suggest tuba exchange what shouldn't be too far.

Glanced through their website, and only eb in your range was a st. petersburg...

My usual take is if ya just want an eb tuba and doesn't have to be any good, that shouldn't be too hard...

Couple i been eyin' on ebay are...

https://www.ebay.com/itm/285784685762

But then i annoy band director/conductor type people by trying to get away with the smallest, most eccentric tuning ebs i can find. And i get away with what i do either because i'm the only willing volunteer, or because the other person drowns me out mostly.

I'll look further... cause i'm bored.

Barely in your range, and maybe not after shipping, but could be a fantastic instrument.

Can't go wrong with a name like Boosey.

This is a good horn close enough for you to go get in person

I have a yamaha 381 5 valve that may be a good fit for you. Located in Central Indiana. Thanks, Bernie
