BESSON Silver-plated Cornet, SOVEREIGN BE928-2 - Brand: BESSON - Model Name: BE928-2 - Finish: Silver-plated Thank you for viewing. There are no signs of repair, noticeable scratches, or dents, and I believe this instrument is in very beautiful condition. I used it in 6 or 7 British brass band performances. It's an instrument with a wonderful warm tone and blend. The pitch of G (concert pitch) is slightly high, but it was within a range that could be adjusted with slide operation or alternate fingerings. I didn't notice anything else. It has the potential to be used not only in British brass bands but also in wind bands and orchestras if the balance is adjusted with a mouthpiece, etc. It will be sent in the original case. The case has never been used, but there is a slightly raised area. Please check the photos.
