Well, summer is here, and I've decided to sell all of my non-essentials to finance my motorcycle fettish.

Here is some of what I have:

Silent Brass for tuba: It's seen less than 20 hours use. I still have the original box it came in from Yamaha. I'm asking $50.

Conn 20J: laquer finish is in good shape, really not much tarnish or scratching, and I'm pretty sure it's all original. Body is in good shape with a few small dents that could easily be taken out without any disassembly. Recording bell has several dents, but I think a repairperson more competent than myself could easily make it look as good as new. Valves are tight and fast.. I used this horn for some jazz combo gigs, and it's a real GAS to play... I really love it, it's a wonderful jamming horn, but I want a Yamaha Virago. Asking $1,100.

Conn 88H tenor bone: This is actually a friend's. Has "Elkhart" on the bell. Very very nice playing horn, and an identical model(made in the same year, even) on eBay last week was bid up to $300 more than the asking price on this one, which is $800.

I also have several mouthpieces which I will list here:

Tuba: Bach 18, "Tuba Exchange" helleberg copy with a satin finish(I took off the fake silver plating as it irritated my skin). email offers.

Trombone/Euph: Schilke 57, J. Marcinkiewicz Model 10(GREAT solo/jazz tenor mouthpiece), Besson 10. email offers.

Thanks for reading!
