I ordered a Besson 983 Eb tuba, Silver plated, but now cannot use it. It is at The Horn Guys and here is a description.
"Ferguson at Horn Guys has a great deal on a silver Besson 983 he bought from Robert Tucci.
Mr. Tucci played it and wrote, 'The front-action "Besson" Eb-tuba is a delight. It is much better than
those produced by "Besson" years ago. Valves, assembly and finish are
first-rate "B & S" quality: the package with the case, an Alliance and
one of our new RT-24+ mouthpieces, is superb.'"

Here it is. https://www.hornguys.com/collections/eb ... ating-tuba" target="_blank" target="_blank
If it's, quote, "much better than those produced by Besson", then it must be one hell of a tuba!

It is indeed a great tuba. I used to play one for many years in brass bands. Best compensated Eb tuba I've ever played.
