[Features]

Besson 600 (Six Hundred) series euphonium (discontinued). This is a student model that is the predecessor of the current BE165-2 (list price 539,000 yen). The lack of a pitch-correction tube (compensating tube) makes the response light and easy to play. This model has a light and bright sound with a full Besson-like taste.
