You e mailed me right after your folks found this horn. I haven't had time to look at all of the photos but from those I have looked at, I think you do have an instrument
that is worth spending the money on. hey just do not build them that sturdy any more.
If my King is any indication, your horn will have good intonation and a big robust
sound.
I would recommend either Matt Walters or Dan Oberloh in Seattle as the best tuba
repairmen in the US. Both are tubists so they know what a horn should do when
it has been redone.
