Welcome to Ashantee Music!
Matching Exceptional Students With Quality Instruments
One of several professional flugelhorns we are offering for sale. This is a Getzen 895S silver Bb flugelhorn for sale. It is in very good condition: silver about 95% with a little wear on the bell near the valves, and small, ripples and dings left behind from past dent removal. No signs of any damage to bell flare. All tuning slides free, valves are fast and smooth and quiet. Note that this horn is oiled with SYNTHETIC valve oil—specifically, Hetman #2—and that you must use the same or thoroughly clean the pistons and casings prior to switching to a petroleum-based product. Just through the shop where it was chem cleaned, lubed and polished. Plays with a warm, silky tone and excellent intonation. Comes in a used ProTec triple case with strap, several external pockets and has some wear but is in good condition. I actually reinforced the main zippers with heavy-duty nylon thread. If you prefer a vintage Reunion Blues leather gig bag, a new double or triple—or perhaps no case at all—shoot me a message and we can work something out. Also includes a Yamaha 12F3d flugelhorn mouthpiece. A great horn for your arsenal, and at about $1,100 less than new!

We are always happy to consider reasonable offers on our auctions.
Purchases: We strive to be accurate and detailed in our descriptions. If you have any questions or concerns about a listing, please ask questions prior to bidding. Photographs are considered a binding part of an item description.
Shipping: Items are shipped after receipt and clearance of your payment. We try to ship far ahead of the handling time listed in the auction. Note that with international shipping, not all countries provide door-to-door tracking; therefore, buyer assumes full liability for item after leaving the United States.
Returns: We have zero unhappy customers, and we have offered hassle-free returns for almost twenty years. Unfortunately, due to rampant abuse of eBay's automated returns, and since PayPal no longer refunds sales fees, we have had to revise our return policy. (1) If you are not satisfied with your purchase, please contact us PRIOR to initiating a return via eBay and allow us to address your concerns. Many items such as clarinets and oboes come out of adjustment during the shipping process, and can be easily tweaked by your local technician. We are happy to talk you through this process. (2) Items may be returned for any reason at your expense within seven days of receipt for a full refund of the purchase price less shipping and eBay fees, which are not refundable. If on receipt we are able to verify the item to be significantly different than described, we will additionally refund original shipping, PayPal fees, and your return shipping to maximum of $30.00.
Non-paying Bidders: We reserve the right to relist or otherwise dispose of any item if payment is not received with three days of the auction close.
