Up for purchase is a used Mercer & Barker MBUZ6 Goliath Tuba Mouthpiece featuring a striking gold body with silver accents/highlights.

Please note on model naming: This mouthpiece is stamped MBUZ6, which is the original name for the current MB6 Goliath model in Mercer & Barker's catalog.

This mouthpiece is in good pre-owned condition. It shows normal, cosmetic signs of use including plating wear/cosmetic blemishes on the finish and standard insertion marks on the shank. The rim contour and cup remain smooth and playable, and the shank is true and round. It has been thoroughly cleaned, sanitized, and prepared for its next owner.
