Besson horn gold to be found at Band Supplies

The remarkable Besson Prestige gold brass bell tenor horn is now in stock at Band Supplies — and demand to get them is producing gold rush fever...

Band Supplies
 

One of the most sought after instruments in the brass band market place has just arrived at Band Supplies.

The Besson Prestige 2050 gold brass bell tenor horn has already created something of a stir with its amazingly opulent tone that blends both as a solo and ensemble instrument.

New levels

It is the latest addition in the Prestige horn range and as such is at the cutting edge of tenor horn design and development — building on the instruments existing strengths and recent modifications and enhancing them to new levels.

Satisfies all requirements

Band Supplies Managing Director Ronnie Tennant told 4BR: "It's an instrument everyone has been waiting for — and now we have them at Band Supplies. Interest in them has been remarkable with a few very fortunate leading players getting their hands on one as soon they were delivered.

If you are looking for an instrument that satisfies all your requirements as a performer then the gold brass bell Prestige is certainly it."
