Click on the Musicians link above and spend time on the web sites of Patrick Sheridan and Steve Sykes. The audio files are amazing - and probably would still be with any brand of instrument, yet they use Besson EEbs. Patrick on the 983 and Steve on the 981. Vastly different instruments. Besson Tuba roots are in British Brass Bands, where they are considered "the" instrument to play.
