VMI model 130 is a 4 valve tuba with .748 bore rotors and yes, it is based off the Meinl Weston 30's body. It is also available as a 5 rotor model 132/1 (4+1) or 132/2 (5+0). They will sell for less than a Meinl Weston 32. So figure your price accordingly. You may have paid more as they were last imported through a "middle man" company call Orpheus. Many of us lost money during the "Orpheus Years."
