This is a Wessex "Mighty Gnome" tornister tuba. I have had it a few months, and I'm perfectly satisfied with it. I've just decided to use something else for travel. I have flown with this tuba in this gig bag as carry-on baggage, and it does indeed fit in an overhead bin, as advertised.All the tuning slides have been adjusted and lapped, and operate smoothly. Unlike the ones being sold on here by a certain huge retailer for a similar price, this one was checked for quality before leaving the factory, has proven itself in use, and has actually been improved. With this tuba you know you are not getting a bad example.Shipping is listed as a flat $100. However, if the actual shipping is less I will refund the difference, and if it is more I will cover it.
