This is a repeat post, in hopes that someday my beloved horn will turn up, especially close to Tuba Christmas, where it may be spotted! Please note my current contact info, and check those serial numbers!
On June 5th, 2003 my car was broken into, and my tuba was stolen.
Silver Miraphone CC 186 5 valve tuba serial #13729
Serial number located on front of bell below Miraphone insignia. Silver plating coming off first valve key, only first valve vented. Some dents and scratches, but who knows what it looks like now.
Also stolen a Perantucci PT88+ "MEGA" mouthpiece. Distinguishing diagonal "nick" on outside rim of mouthpiece.
If found, please contact the Long Beach Police Department or myself.
Thank you for your time.
