***SOLD***
For sale: Yamaha YEB 381 and Yamaha hard case. This is a factory 381, not a 321 with a 5th valve added.
5th valve: flat 1/2 step
Location: Bloomington/Normal IL
Asking $2900 obo
Prefer not to ship, but I can (at the buyers expense) if needed. I am willing to drive a few hours to meet any potential (serious) buyers
So, why am I selling?
I had no intention of selling it, but I planned to modify a few things on the horn. I found a different 381 with the exact modifications I was planning, and it makes much more sense for me to go that route instead of modifying this one.
There are quite a few dents and a few spots where the silver plating has worn off, but mechanically it is fine. The are brand new 4th and main tuning slides.
Here are a couple examples of the instrument's sound:
