Frank Holton sousaphone neck and/or bits

Post by EmptyCase »

I'm looking for a Neck and/or a set of Bits for an old Frank Holton sousaphone. I know Taylor music makes replacements, but they're expensive. I would prefer silver, but lacquer is ok. Any condition will do so long as it's usable/or fixable within reason. Thanks!!

PM me with offers or email me at radurst05@gmail.com

I did not get an email that I can see. That being said, the owner of the sousaphone that I was going to buy these for said they found the originals in a box so I may not need them.(depends on weather they are telling the truth)

Did you ever get these? (surely you did...??)

I just bought a whole bunch of sousaphone necks, and included is a gleaming near-new (oem) Holton pair of bits, and I know I have a Holton neck or two out in the shop.

I ended up not needing them. Just forgot to take down the post. The guy never ended up selling it to me.

I'll try to remember. When I go out there, I see the thing that I'm currently working on and forget about what I'm supposed to be looking for for someone I talked to on my phone.
