Nice Little Besson
For someone looking for a very small BBb, these little 787s play bigger than they look.

Re: Nice Little Besson
Is it a Tuba or a Euph? I asked the lister and they said they were selling it for someone that owned a pawn shop and didn't really know what it was.

Re: Nice Little Besson
The school at which I teach has one of these (albeit, much more beat up than the one listed) and it plays very well. I like it for beginners because it is very small size-wise, but does put out a good sound. Another band director nearby borrowed ours for a summer to take on the road with a big band group he plays with because he likes it so much (he taught here a number of years ago and was the one that purchased it I believe).

If at first you don't succeed, skydiving's probably not for you.
