Description Brand: Wessex Bell Material: Brass Model: Bubbie Items Included: Case, Mouthpiece Finish: Brass Lacquer Key: EEb/F
Since moving from EEb to Baritone I have decided to part with my Wessex EEb/F Bubbie Tuba (in lacquer finish), having 4 rotary valves and 2 interchangeable slides swopping between EEb and F. It’s in excellent condition, all valves and slides move, a few small dents (see images for details) where I lent it out for a short while but that’s all. Comes with Chord soft case, EEb and F slides and mouthpiece. This was sold by Wessex as a travel tuba, is ideal for keeping your lip in as it will take your usual tuba mouthpiece, and pretty good for marching too. Small enough to take on the plane as hand luggage weighing around 6kg. I've used this for marching, carol playing and just when I couldn’t be bothered to get out the full size instrument to practice. It is the original Wessex Bubbie, not the one they are selling at the moment.
