F. Besson Eb Soprano Flugelhorn - Paris, Rare French Vintage c. 1895 Pre-War
Location:
Staten Island, NY
Description:
F. Besson Eb Soprano Flugelhorn- Serial # 54,xxx; dates to 1895- Made in Paris France- VERY original, and plays well!COSMETICS:Appears to be very original. Please see all pictures. There's some light dents, scratches, bumps, etc.....but considering it's 130 years old, I honestly think it looks great. The bell trademark has a separate cosmetic patch engraved to signify the name of the store/outlet that it was sent to in order to be sold. MECHANICS:Great for the age. All slides pull well, including the leadpipe. The valves also work well, and mariculously maintain pretty good compression. They are original unplated, and was often the case with the Pre WWI horns.It plays quite well!SHIPPING: *FREE* to USA w/USPS or UPS (my choice). International will be calculated at checkout w/USPS Priority International PAYMENT: PayPal, cash in-person, Ebay payments. **PLEASE NOTE**: My asking price reflects the EXORBITANT fees that eBay now collects. Ebay also factors in sales tax into their fees, which sellers never even see a penny from. I'd really rather not ask this much, but it seems to be the only way to come out with a fair amount on this platform. With that said, this piece is for sale locally as well for a different (ie:lower) price, so feel free to contact me in regards. I reserve the right to end this auction at any point. Please feel free to message me with ANY questions or additional picture requests. I am more than happy to help. Come play it if you're in the NYC area. Thanks
