Tuba For Sale

Mirafone 186

This is what the tuba looks like right now. It has been sitting around un-played for several years so it has developed a patina. Most of it is raw brass. With a lot of work it can be polished to a high gold shine. It also takes a lot of work to keep it that way. I never bothered and got used to the look.

There may be the very slightest ding here and there but very minor. Nothing you could call a dent.

The slides work but right now there is some clanging noise in the 3rd and fourth valves. I guess there always was and to be honest with you I didn't know if that was common in rotors so I just overlooked it. Maybe those rubber bumpers need replaced?

The bell has been replaced so there are no Mirafone markings on it.

This comes with a like new gig bag. Only a few scuffs. This is the bag

here .



Right now I am asking $1800 and will probably need to charge for shipping. I have not even looked into that yet.

The tuba is in Lawrenceville Illinois if you want to see it contact me at arts@umfleet.net.
