This is in fantastic working condition. I’m a retired band director, and I would characterize this as ready to go for band camp. That being said, it’s always a good idea to have a brass Technician go through this once you get it.

The valves are operating smoothly. The tuning slides are lubricated and moving. The water key mechanisms are functioning and the pads look to have more life in them before you need to replace them.

The mouthpiece that comes with it is a FAXX 2. It is in decent shape and it is what I use to play test this.

Overall condition, dents, etc. are portrayed accurately in the pictures.

The case secures the instrument well. The middle latch might take a little extra umph to close and open. If somebody’s handy and bent it just a little bit better for how it sits, that would be good. We will ship this carefully and safely.
