JUPITER SMP-450 Jupiter Marching Mellophone (F key)

JUPITER SMP-450
Serial Number: 62xxx
Plating: Silver-plated

This is a Jupiter (made in Taiwan) marching mellophone in F. It uses a trumpet shank mouthpiece. Because it can be played with a trumpet mouthpiece, trumpet players can perform the horn part in ensembles, etc. It has a light blowing feel and a bright tone.

Regarding the condition of the instrument, it is in relatively clean condition, but there is some minor silver plating peeling (on a part of the 2nd valve slide). There are no other noticeable dents or major scratches, and no damage that would affect playability.
The pistons and slides are not stuck. They move smoothly.
It has been regularly maintained with valve oil and grease, so it is ready to play immediately.
A Jupiter 7C mouthpiece is included.
The case is damaged but still usable for transport.

Price is firm.
This is a used item, so please understand the condition and purchase with no claims and no returns (NC/NR).
