Besson 8-10 Cornet 1960's - Reconditioned - Case & Besson 5 MP - $400 (Rifle)
QR Code Link to This Post
Lovely playing English Besson with a nice wide open wrap. Valves are fast, slides are all smooth and caps thread easily. How shows good with 90% lacquer, scratches and signs of use, finger hook required soldering. Original case is solid and the original Besson 5 mouthpieces is included.
Most sellers here and elsewhere are selling used and most likely dirty instruments that were stored wet and uncleaned. A little valve oil and slide grease does not make them playable or ready, playing an uncleaned instrument is truly gross. All of my horns are completely reconditioned and detailed, this is $150 service which most used horns will need. A basic clean will not remove mineral deposits, all my horns get acid baths, honed valve chambers which are finished with hand-lapping (A $50 service on it's own) and tested. All horns have a 1 year warranty and free repairs for a year as well.
I have lots of trumpets ready to play! Starting at $150 for starters with plenty of vintage US built student models. All instruments guaranteed with warranty.
