New baby clearance sale!!! Inventory must be slashed!!! :( :)

Besson 782 EEb tuba
International series
.681 bore, 19" bell
3+1 compensating
Weight is the same as the 982 Sovereign (20 pounds, 8 ounces)
Comes with a case and a 5L mouthpiece
Horn has never left the house and is MINT

I bought this horn from an active duty Army guy who only played it a handful of times and decided not to keep it. I've also only used it a handful of times, so NEW condition. No dents, scratches, etc. It's shameful for it to sit in my basement and not be played :) Plays wonderfully (from a trombonist's perspective, HA!), not even sure if the valves are broken in yet (lol). Threads on the fourth valve are a little tricky though.

New the horn sells for $4000 plus tax and shipping. I would like to get $2800 OBO for it (open to offers, but not looking to do trades). My preference is not to ship, though I am open to driving a reasonable distance to meet someone.

If interested in trying it out just let me know.

Thanks! She'll be arriving in September sometime, so this sale is part of my "nesting."

I’m weighing my options and checking a pending budget. Is this still available?
