They say that 'Good things come in small packages' - and this 3/4th size compensating double by Besson (model 600) is proof of that. The compression on the F side registers a 3.4 - but that is across the equivilent of 8 valves since the air passes through the rotors 2 times! It's light, it plays easily and the Adjustable fingerhook means it will be comfortable for even the smallest of players. Made of lacquered yellow brass.
If you want to get a headstart for your budding player this is the perfect horn. 10 months of rentals at a standard store would equal purchasing this instrument, and at the end of a rental you have nothing to show for it.
It has a few small dings - nothing big. Fixed bell 3/4th sized case included.
