Closeout - final sale

Here we have a large 6/4 size five valve piston CC tuba called the Kaiser Model.  It's similar to the Hirsbrunner Grand Orchestra tuba, the Meinl Weston Baer and the Yorkaha tuba. Alan Baer actually won the New York Philharmonic position and several others on this model PCK tuba. The Gronitz PCK has been played by many professionals worldwide. Gronitz tubas are handmade in Bavaria, Germany in a small shop owned by Andreas Klingspor. The tubas are built to order and are hand assembled the old way.  This big tuba is also fairly light - 24.9 lbs., being made mostly of sheet brass bows rather than heavier bows made from tubes.  You can see the bottom bow seam when looking down into the bell  The PCK has a velvety smooth tone, and it's the easiest to play large tuba that you can find.  This design defines the modern orchestral sound.  Despite its large size, it's a very versatile tuba and is useful for smaller ensembles as well as large ones. I thought Gronitz piston valve tubas, including the PCK, now have MAW pistons as standard.  But on this one I dont see the distinctive D-shaoed airway so I don't know.  Maybe that's an F tuba feature? MAW pistons are a proprietary design by Martin Wilk for smoother air routing through the pistons.  Either way the pistons are made by Meinlschmidt in Germany. 

Includes top loading Supersac gig bag from Gronitz.  Mouthpiece sold separately.  PT size Euro receiver.  This one has a few tarnish spots I didnt wipe off for the new photos, it's been sitting in its gig bag for some time. I'll give it the full monty before shipping.

Loved it
Made my daughter's hair softer even after one use. I rnjoy that its only plant based. Feels soft and silky while in hand and spreads easily through hair. Very affordable and lasts a long time.

excellent product, excellent results
This was one of my best purchases. I still buy it. Usually, you can't find baby conditioner. It leaves your baby's hair very soft and smells incredible. If your baby has slightly curly hair, it's excellent, and if it's not curly, too

Nice conditioner
I used this conditioner with the shampoo it goes with and I thought it worked well. I liked the smell of the conditioner better than the smell of the shampoo. It really moisturized my daughter's hair, but did not make it greasy. I think it works better if you get as much water off of the hair before you add in the conditioner. I shake my daughter's hair out and dry it a bit with a towel before adding in the conditioner. Then I let it sit on her hair for a bit before rinsing it out.
