Besson Prestige 2028

Professional B-flat cornet

The Besson Prestige 2028 (BE2028) is a professional B-flat cornet with a traditional Shepherd's Crook design, a 0.468-inch bore, and a hand-hammered yellow brass bell (124 mm / 4.88 inches). It uses three top-sprung hand-lapped Monel pistons and adds main-tuning-slide and third-valve-slide triggers. A more focused, intense alternative to the Sovereign, it is offered in clear lacquer and silver-plate finishes.
