The case has three functioning catches, but the 4th (on the end) is broken. The case is unique to the shape of the tuba and a modern 994 case is not compatible. There are markings and stickers on the case and it looks tired, but remains functional, with handles and wheels in working order.Returns/WarrantyIf on initial inspection you are disappointed in any way, you may return it and receive a full refund.

Accounts department 01494 685132Rosehill Instruments is a music retail business which has specialised in selling and repairing brass and woodwind instruments since 1967. It was founded by Trevor Austin who was previously a euphonium player in the Horse Guards (and played on horseback at Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation in 1953). Following long service in the Salvation Army as a player and conductor, his reputation led to requests to supply instruments around the UK and overseas. Rosehill is now led by Trevor’s son Paul. The company was awarded a UK government contract in 1999, and since then has been an approved supplier of musical instruments to Her Majesty’s military bands. We also repair, refurbish and service all brass band and military band instruments at our workshops in Beaconsfield. As well as drawing customers from all over the UK, we also supply many instruments to bands and players overseas.
