Additional Info: This is a heavy duty sousaphone. It will need some repair to be playing again but the valves all work well and are smooth. There is a break in the lead pipe as mentioned above. The bell tenon needs to be put back into round. There is some possible fractures that need to be looked at as mentioned above. One of the bow guards has popped its solder in the middle (see pics). This is a huge sousaphone! It is a jumbo sized which means that it has a very big bore and the bell is quite large. I’m sure once this is playing it would have a big beefy sound.

The Finish: It has approximately 70-75% of the silver finish. Player Wear: Heavy general wear substantial surface scratches and wear with medium-large dents and dings and/or. Valve Condition: All the valves are in good working condition and some of the tuning slides are stuck. Valve Info: The third valve valve cap does not match the other two. Lead Pipe Condition: Heavy general wear substantial surface scratches and wear with medium-large dents and dings and/or. Metal Condition: One broken spot in the lead pipe and two patched metal spots on the body as you get close to the bell (see pics).

Outside Body Bow Condition: Has a medium dent in the outside bow with a couple of small dings and dents (See Pics).
