The only thing better than a fine Bart Reiter Tubaphone is a beautiful Reiter neck on an original, vintage Fairbanks Tubaphone pot. Bart selected a lovely peuce of flamed maple for the neck and stained it a warm, toasty brown. The pot is a late period (1930's) Fairbanks measuring 10 7/8" with a 26" scale length. Playability is excellent with low enough action for melodic clawhammer and room to move up for more aggressive old-time styles. Comes with a nice hard shell TKL case.
