Hello all!
My name is Isaac and I am looking to trade my Meinl Weston 45SLP for a Miraphone Petruska or a Yamaha 822! I’ve loved having this F tuba, but it’s a bit too big for me and what I need it to do. I am located in Memphis, Tennessee and am willing to travel a good distance to trade.
I have pictures, but can’t find them, so feel free to email me at isaacallmon4@gmail.com for them.
The horn plays like it’s new, is in near perfect condition, and will come with a gig bag as well. It has an added second valve kicker and has not had any major work on it, only cleanings.
Please feel free to reach out if you want to trade!

Bump for Isaac.
This is a fantastic example of the horn and I have spent a bit of time playing it when he got it. I have found on other examples of this model that the low C had issues for me, but it did not at all on this particular horn, tuning was very workable, and it has a huge sound with great response. I personally like the 45SLP better than the 2250.
