Description
Brand: Besson Bell Material: Brass

This is a Very Good Besson International Compensating Double French Horn -Serviced.  It has a very comfortable hand positioning of the thumb lever compared with cheaper compensating horns and it resembles a Yamaha 567 thumb lever . There is an adjustable pinky ring .
The condition of this horn is very good and the lacquer is 97% good . The horn has been overhauled and completely cleaned and lubricated with all working parts in good order with no dents or dings . An ex local authority instrument, it seems to have been only lightly used but has been fully cleaned and lubricated using the finest oils available . There may be a small in-obtrusive area where the previous owner etched their name . The plush lined hard case is in very good condition .
The mouthpiece and instrument have been brushed disinfected and polished unlike some of the filthy examples that turn up online .  This horn would suit a young intermediate or amateur player seeking a good but lighter alternative to a heavier full double .
Foreign buyers please ask for a postage quote or the full price will be charged.  Please look at my other items and feedback.
Happy bidding .
