Looking for a reliable and trusted tuba? Then come check out this used Miraphone 186 BBb tuba! These tubas are known for their focused intonation, ease of play, and the bright wonderful response. This 186 is a great player. It feels easy to get air through it, and has a big sound. The rotors move freely. This is a used horn; scratches from regular use can be found throughout the inner and outer wrap of the tuba, as well as minor dents in a few tuning slides and crooks that were not easily accessible by our technicians.

This tuba needed quite a bit of work to be prepped for sale. Our professional brass technician wound up spending a lot of time with this horn as a result. Dents were removed from the lead pipe, bow, and tuning slides. Our tech then unsoldered the quarters of paddles, there are spots of wear on the paddles. Over the course of all this work, the tuba also got a disassembly and cleaning in our ultrasonic tank. It got a thorough play-test once it was reassembled and lubed up, and now it's here waiting for you! 


The bell rim and flair of this tuba has had many dents worked out over the years and so it is not recommended that this instrument be placed bell side down. The stand is included in the purchase along with two mouthpieces. However, this tuba does not come with a case.
