What a great deal. Saturn water keys, AGR, added fifth valve, both bells, cases, gig bag. Matt Walters build?

That is a very tempting tuba....I saw it listed on Facebook for $1,995, so they either came down in price, or just offer it lower for locals. I would love to try that thing.

If I lived anywhere west of the Rockies I would already be there!

I doubt that Matt Walters built that horn. That question mark shaped port on the third valve would be a no-no in his book, I’d wager.
Not that it doesn’t work or anything bad, just that Matt seemed to really enjoy building up valve clusters that looks as good, if not better than, something you’d find in a factory.

Norm was my second guess. I love his stuff. Super cool tuba.
