The Besson BE995
CC Tuba represents the first time Besson has produced a front-action,
5-valve full size CC tuba. The BE995 is an exceptional professional
instrument with a "four piston, one rotary" non compensating
valve configuration. It is surprisingly lightweight, and produces
a rich, colour ful, clear and deep sound.
A highly efficient instrument with a wide dynamic range and
a powerful low register, this tuba provides maximum sound
output with less effort than other makes of CC tuba.
