After much thought, I am listing my Willson 3400 Eb (silver-plate) for sale. It is a wonderful tuba that I purchased new about 9 yrs. ago. It is in almost perfect condition (I put my very first small ding in the bottom bow this year). It has always been kept and transported in a hard case. Very open horn, with excellent valves (great compression), strong low register and extremely responsive in all registers. I have used this horn professionally in settings from full orchestra to solos. I have played several of these Willson models, and this one is outstanding. If you are considering a new Eb, you should give this one a try. I am looking to get $6000, which includes a hard case. The horn is located in the Ann Arbor, MI, area. Please email me privately for pics and more info., as I will not respond to a public debate about why someone should choose to play one horn over another.
