Hi Jim,
OK; 116 wide Lexan rim, LB K cup, M8 (2004) shank.
I know, Doug says not to mix cup/shank letters, but after a lot of experimenting, this really works for me.
How about a pic of 2005?

Evidently the 2905 is not well known. It is a 2900 without the extra "armor plate." Same bell and bore as a 2900. So the question still stands
Jim
My post was actually directed to "Brian Bowman is God's" where he posted...
"Aren't the 2900 and 2950 the exact same thing except for the large shank on the 2950. If you want the large shank, I'd say go with the 2950."
The 2905 sounds like a nice horn Jim.

What do u use now? or didnt i read carefully lol. Anyway I have a question about intonation............the talk has been going around that besson has major intonation problems but one horn to the other is also very different.......so, whats yours like? and is that a very sound generalization (....no pun was intended)Similarly, when I played Besson, I used a 968--11" bell instead of the 967 with the 12" bell. Just my pref for a brighter sound.
