Good Yamaha YBB-321 BBb Concert Tuba, No Dents, Good Valves, w/Case

Good Yamaha YBB-321 four-valve BBb Concert TUBA.

It's a good all-around full size BBb concert tuba with .728" bore and 17.5 " bell.

Dents and dings have been removed by our shop, but no serious damage ever to this good 4-valve BBb tuba.

The valves show minimal wear and are still tight in the casings with good compression.

Original lacquer finish is worn about 20% with worn areas over-sprayed with new lacquer in our shop to protect the brass and preserve the appearance.

With mouthpiece and solid used Yamaha case.

We have two nearly identical used YBB-321 tubas, now with dents removed, everything repaired and ready for many more years of service.

Suggested retail price for a new one (with case) is now $9,850; with "street price" for a new one over $6,800, but why buy a new one?

Our price for this one: $2,995.

Wichita Band Instrument Company is a small musical instrument emporium located in the center of the USA. We’ve been in business since 1953 and have had the same owner since 1963. Originally we were a repair shop that specialized in woodwind and sax restoration. Today we have 16 employees including seven of the finest repair technicians in the country. Virtually ALL the items we sell have been fully reconditioned in our own shop, although we do sell the occasional unrestored historical instruments each year.

Wichita Band’s service warranty is the same as it’s been for more than thirty years:

ALL new and all used instruments sold by Wichita Band Instrument Company come with our 24 month service warranty. It’s in addition to any factory guarantees. For two full years, we will repair or replace, whichever in our estimation is the more advisable, pads, corks, springs or other parts required, at no charge to the customer. The customer is responsible for shipping and insurance charges. Cases and plating finishes are not covered by our service warranty but are sometimes covered by factory guarantees.

Wichita Band’s service warranty does cover dents and dings to your sax. If your instrument sustains damage to the body, end bow, neck or bell, we’ll burnish out the dents and make it look "like new" again. The cost you is absolutely nothing except shipping and insurance charges.

Wichita Band Instrument Company maintains a repair department capable of restoration work of the highest quality. Even though repairs are essentially free for the first two years, after that period has expired, we remain at your service to maintain and repair your musical equipment forever. It’s our "service after the sale" promise and has been since 1953!

In the event that a customer requires service under factory guarantees or Wichita Band’s service warranty, the item must be returned to us and not directly to the manufacturer.

Anything we sell can be sent to you for a short approval period without obligation. The customer is responsible for shipping and insurance and must pre-pay back to us any freight charges on returned equipment. International shipping is available. Returned items will be refunded within 2 weeks of receiving the item. We’re happy to send any instrument "on approval" for five days, but ask the prospective buyer to pay shipping both ways and to please reimburse us for clean-up and restocking charges (2.95%) on any returned instrument.

Authorized payment methods:

PayPal or credit/debit card processed through our internet merchant account.

Buyers outside of the USA are responsible for all import duties and customs clearance charges in their respective countries. We may refuse paypal and/or credit card payments from some countries.
