Careful. Besson with an "s" is the knockoff horn.

AVOID!!

Well, that about sums it up.
These are NOT made by Besson (please note - no s at the end), these have NOT been made by Boosey & Hawkes. They are NOT vintage Boosey & Co.
These are the infamous India copies. Somewhere on TH I have written a history of how these things were started - if you are interested, search it out. |

They recently came up with another name:
"Heley"
Of course, these weren´t made by Lyon Healy, either...
Don´t even go near them!

I mentioned this in an earlier thread, but if you search Ebay for these, whether pocket trumpets or full-sized Bb trumpets, you'll find that they all have the exact same serial number...
