Hi Folks!
I've got a variety of bits and bobs for sale;
Wessex CC Tuba
Bought (i believe!) in 2012. Used for a few shows during 2012/13, but I haven’t really used it since apart from playing around at home.
It’s a 4/4 size, copy of the Miraphone 186 CC tuba with five rotary valves. The fifth is a long tone.
There’s a couple of little dints in the bell, but i couldn’t manage to photograph them. The slides and the main body have nothing that I can see. There is a little wear to the paddles where my fingers have been which you can see in the photos, but this doesn’t detract from playability. I have a cat, so there's a couple of scratch marks on the case, but it’s pretty hardy and purely cosmetic.
I had a little toot before I took these photos and don’t really want to sell, but alas, i live in a small flat and it never sees the light of day that it deserves.

Looking for around £1850 ono.
Wessex Eb/F Bubbie Tuba.
In good nick, all valves and slides move, one tiny little pinhead dent on the bell but that's all i can find. Comes with hard case and Eb and F slides.
As some of you know, this was sold by Wessex as a travel tuba, and it has come in use over the years. Perfect for keeping your lip in, and pretty good for marching too. Small enough to take on the plane as hand luggage. I've used this for a variety of shows, including Hosen Brass as well some workshop and recording work where it worked really well miced up.

This is the original Wessex Bubbie, not the one they are selling at the moment. The newest one starts at £1750 - I'm looking for £900, however I'm open to offers.
Gear 4 Music Eb Tuba 'hard' case
Designed for a 'Fletcher' leadpipe instrument, but can squeeze in an 'L' shaped leadpipe. Originally from a Gear 4 Music Coppergate Tuba (which i still have!), but no longer needed and taking up space. Has front pocket and shoulder straps.

Looking for offers for this.
Wessex Tubas Euphonium 'hard' case
Similar to the Gear 4 Music case above, but designed for the compensating Euphonium. Has a front pocket and shoulder straps. There is the Wessex logo embroidered on this case.
Also looking for offers for this case.
Everything based in NW3, London. Would prefer collection, but if you didn't mind things not being wrapped (I'm currently at home with a broken ankle so not able to box/wrap at the moment!) then I'm happy for you to arrange a courier.
