Kanstul French Besson Classic C Trumpet

This example sold for $1699 plus tax and shipping November 2024, though missing one of the tuning slides. One of several professional C trumpets we are offering for sale. This is a Kanstul-made French Besson Classic in silver.  It is in exceptional condition:  plating about 99.9% with little if any wear at all. One tiny ding on the bell as seen in the photos, but no other noticeable dings or imperfections.  It is, plain and simple, a fabulous horn.  All tuning slide free, valves are fast and smooth with almost no wear at all and fabulous compression.  Just through our shop where it was detergent cleaned, lubed, polished, and had new tuning slide O-rings installed.  Between the fabulous Najoom leadpipe and the rounded tuning slide, this horn is one of the easiest-blowing C’s you’ll ever play.  Comes with a velvet Besson bag and the original hard case which is also in excellent condition.
