Spring cleaning sale. My wife says I better clean up and clear out the extra room. Or, she will do it for me...touch my stuff, NO! :eek:

Please contact me with questions and offers. Email will elicit a faster reply, but PM if you prefer. Standard shipping within the continental U.S. (lower 48) is included for all items except as noted. PayPal is my preferred method of payment. Don't be shy: Reasonable offers will be considered!

Schilke 50 (small shank): $28 obo

Silver plated. Fair to good condition. Some rim plating wear, a few hair line scratches, and shank insertion wear. No nicks on playing surfaces. This is was my backup 50—would serve someone else in similar capacity, or as a cheap tester. I've often hear it described as "like a 6.5A (AL) for those who like Schilke rims." For me, it paired well with my Bach 16M, Bach 39 (alto), Yamaha YSL-354, and sometimes my Bach 36B (depending on rep).

Vincent Bach

Bach 6-1/2A (large shank): $45 obo

Silver plated. Excellent condition. NO plating wear except for shank insertion wear. A tiny scuff on outer rim—nothing on the playing surfaces. Dating (see pics): Small letters, deeper stamping. 1 is over the 2 with a horizontal fraction bar (vinculum) "—"

Bach 6-1/2AL (large shank): $75 obo

Gold plated. Excellent condition. Virtually no plating wear except for shank insertion wear. Dating (see pics): Small letters, shallow stamping. 1 is on the same plane as the 2 with a forward slash fraction bar (solidus) "/"

22C (small shank): $55 obo

Silver plated. Excellent (like new) condition. NO plating wear. A minuscule ding on the outer cup—nothing on the playing surfaces. By many players' standards, it is a small mouthpiece. I find the small rim and shallower cup is suited for some bass trumpet work. But, I mostly used it on my Bach alto for certain repertoire. Some of my Latin American and Mexican friends like it for small bore tenors, especially the valved variety—streets bands, Banda, etc.

Miscellaneous

Yamaha 45C2-12C (small shank): FREE—pay for shipping

Silver plated. Some plating wear. Significant number of dings and hairline scratches. This appears to be an older Yamaha Japan piece, but not the really old longer shank. While it is usable/playable, it would probably best serve as a backup 12C-sized piece—especially for outside/parade use. Pay for shipping and yours—FREE.

trombone mouthpiece, unknown maker, 3G sized? (large shank): $15 obo

Silver plated. Good condition. A few tiny dings on the outer rim—nothing on the playing surfaces. This is a small bass or large tenor mouthpiece of unknown origins. I would say it it was a Bach 3G or Schilke 53 size—maybe slightly larger diameter. It has a fairly deep, almost funnel shaped, cup. It might be fun for someone to experiment with, use as an outdoor mouthpiece, or maybe use for a project, or as cool paper weight. I'm essentially just looking to pass this one on and recoup the shipping costs.

tuba mouthpiece, unknown maker, Perantucci copy?: $20 obo

Gold plated. Good condition. A few tiny dings on the outer rim and scuffs on the outer cup—nothing on the playing surfaces. This is a tuba mouthpiece of unknown origins. Ostensibly, it appears to be a copy of a Perantucci. My teacher, who plays Perantucci on tuba, is going to compare it to his pieces and tell me which model it is a copy of. So, I'll update this post to reflect our findings. It is definitely not a Bach, Schilke, or Conn Heleberg clone. This would be a decent mouthpiece to have around if one came into possession of a tuba that didn't include a mouthpiece. Or maybe it would be a good candidate for a project, or a cool paper weight. I'm essentially just looking to pass this one on and recoup the shipping costs.
