I cast my vote for the Besson as well... (the 983). I love the tambre of the horn, and appreciate the decent intonation in the low register it offers versus some F tubas. With the exception of the thumb ring being a big pain, it is an excellent horn in my opinion. Haven't found any real "problem" notes yet, (at least none that are a result of anything other than my own weaknesses!) Everyone I have heard on this horn playing solo recitals (Pat Sheridan, Phil Sinder, etc.) sounds great! Of course it isn't all the horn, but I like the sound they have.
just my opinion...
