Is that a brass bell-garland/kranz/wreath? I don’t think I’ve ever seen that before; always nickel silver. Neat!

Also, what is the receiver size?

Hi T.J.,

yes the bell kranz is made of brass. It supposedly gives a warmer sound, but I think it just looks cool.
The receiver is a standard american shaft size.

Cheers,
TBT

Jake,

I would LOVE to have this but having recently bought a Alex F I have no funds! Come on lottery, this is killing me!

Only thing I could offer is a swap for a Melton 2040/5 and Besson 985 F?

Wilf.

Hi Wilf, I totally know the feeling...

Thank you for the offer, but it's pending/sold at the moment.

If it's not too much trouble could you post here or send me some photos of the Besson 985? Always thought it was a shame Besson never managed to bring this model to standard production.

Cheers from Berlin and happy holidays to those celebrating!
