Hello friends and Besson connoisseurs in particular:
I have a silver-plated Besson London 1000 model I bought back in ca. 2004-6. It was advertised as a student / intermediate trumpet back then. It's in mint condition and I am having trouble getting a general sense of how much it might be worth.
The new/current Besson BE1000 Performance Series (which seems to be targeted at the student market as well albeit maybe as a premium-level instrument in this category) silver-plated goes for $1574.00 online. I believe these instruments are now being manufactured in India. Does anyone have an idea what a ballpark figure might be for mine? I'd appreciate your input here and thank you in advance for your help!
Warmly, Nick |
