The Besson Prestige offsets this by using a second set of tubing for each valve that opens when its fourth valve is engaged. This additional tubing enables you to play low notes properly without affecting the tuning of mid and upper registers. And for perfect intonation, Besson outfitted this horn with a main tuning slide trigger. Together, the compensating valve and slide trigger offer a major advantage over other euphoniums — you no longer have to compensate for sharp pitch by fingering half a step lower! Rather, you get a fully chromatic, well-intonated, low range — complete with a low B — with four valves.Bespoke appointments for the discerning player The Prestige series compensating euphonium comes with premium features that contribute to its outstanding responsiveness, tone, and playing feel. First up is the 0.590-inch, large-bore leadpipe design, which provides a rich tone and powerful response. The yellow brass body and 11-inch handmade yellow brass bell deliver a free-blowing feel. Each valve features optimized springs to give the player a quick, easy action. Players here at Sweetwater praise the Besson Prestige series compensating euphonium for its naturally expressive sound and robust low end.Besson: reflecting the utmost in design, sound, and quality Gustave-Auguste Besson launched the Besson brand in 1837, in Paris, France. The company was ultimately responsible for crafting revolutionary instruments that surpassed all others of their day. While Gustave has been lauded for his alternations to the cornet, his ingenuity wasn't limited to that single instrument. In fact, Gustave contributed more than 50 groundbreaking inventions to the brass world. Modern Besson instruments carry this untouchable legacy forward, with cornets, tenor horns, euphoniums, tubas, French horns, and baritone horns all reflecting the utmost in design, sound, and quality.Besson BE2051 Prestige Euphonium Features: Professional quality, large-bore euphonium with a sumptuous tone 4 stainless steel valves in a 3+1 configuration 11-inch yellow brass bell is slightly smaller and takes less air to fill than a 12-inch bell Compensating tuning system enables you to play low notes with proper tuning The silver-plated brass body adds brilliance to every note you play Multiple water keys drain accumulated moisture from your instrument Gold-plated accents provide a touch of luxury Includes deluxe fitted case, Alliance mouthpiece, extra set of gold-plated top and bottom caps, and other accessories SpecificationDetail Type Compensating Key Bb Level Professional Finish Silver-plated Bore 0.590" Valves 4 x Stainless Steel, Compensating Bell Material Yellow Brass Bell Size 11" Slide/Trigger Main Tuning Mouthpiece Included Case/Gig Bag Deluxe Case Weight 10.5 lbs.
