The Martin Mammoth BBb tuba, 3-front-piston valves, .715″ bore, 20″ bell, ser. # , silver, with Glenn Cronkhite bag.
Manufactured in 1920, this silver-plated big boy is very similar in size and shape to the CSO Yorks, very fat & relatively short, at approx. 35″ tall. The valves have been rebuilt, and the leadpipe is configured to need no tuning bits. This rare tuba is deeply satisfying to play, as it does everything well.

Miraphone 1291 BBb Tuba – $8,595.00
Miraphone 1291 5v BBb tuba, serial number BBb1291-9166659, lacquer, 4 piston, 1 rotor .834″, 18 1/2″ bell diameter, 36.5″ tall, 23 lbs, with original hard case and gig bag.
The tuba was involved in a rehearsal hall accident when new. Eric & I have serviced it, and have done dent work, being careful to not damage the lacquer. If you are looking for a large & powerful BBb at an excellent price, I would recommend this tuba. There is minor cosmetic imperfections, but the tuba is otherwise as-new, with excellent valves, slides, and excellent playing characteristics. The case and bag (and mouthpiece) are all like-new………………..$8,595.00
Alexander Model 200- $8,125.00
Alexander model 200 double horn, ser. # 7356, gold brass prototype, lacquered, in Marcus Bonna case.
This beauty has been very well cared-for since new, and still has silky valve action via miniball linkages and a unique valve lever configuration. The detachable bell and Alexander hand rest help make this instrument comfortable to hold and easy to travel with. The MB case w/ backpack straps is in exceptional condition as well. As for playability, I’d rate this instrument a 10, a welcome addition to any ensemble. I would recommend this exquisite horn to anyone who is serious about their playing and wishes to go to the next level……………………….$8,125.00
