Besson Sousaphones

Post by mdc2d »

The high school I teach at has borrowed two Besson sousas that do not have neck and bits...does anyone know where I can find these? Anyone have a set used that would like to get rid of?

Thanks!

I had a Besson series 700 sousaphone here a couple of months ago but did not note the size of the receiver for the neck. You might check with these guys:

If that fails... check the inside diameter (precision measurement) of the inside of the receiver and post it here.
