The Besson BE968 Sovereign Series Compensating Euphonium is a true testament to British manufacturing. This euphonium features improved intonation in the lower register and has a patented spring damper set. Its mouthpipe is connected by a brace which encourages more free vibrations. The compensating valve system creates smooth, quiet action. This euphonium has a .590” bore and an 11-1/4” bell. Equipped with a case and mouthpiece, the Besson BE968 is available in a lacquer or silver finish.
