Used 1948 Besson (Paris) Brevete Bb trumpet in silver plate, good condition. We gave this vintage trumpet a professional cleaning and precision valve alignment, and despite cosmetic imperfections it plays extremely well. It was replated at some point (100% of the new plating is intact), and there's evidence of numerous repairs throughout, as well as some small dings in the leadpipe and pitting under the plating in several places. The original leadpipe was also replaced with a Bach leadpipe at some point. But there are no patches or red rot, and the valve compression and action are very good with Hetman 3 oil. The horn plays with a dark, flexible sound that's very easy to color and would fit in any playing situation. Comes with Tuxedo gig bag.
