Thread: WTB: Besson or Boosey and Hawkes Imperial/New Standard

  1. WTB: Besson or Boosey and Hawkes Imperial/New Standard

    Exactly as the title says, I am looking for a new horn. I am trying to keep the price under 2000$ including shipping because cosmetics to me aren't that important. I live in Florida if that influences any shipping.

    Jenny Thomas at Duchy Brass (UK) has a very nice Imperial in a frosted silver finish. Here is a link.

    Sure - in the third/last picture (attached in previous message) the seller has provided his name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address. Suggest contacting him directly with any questions about his euphonium.
