The famous tone of the Besson Sovereign E-flat bass tuba can be heard in many of the world’s leading brass and wind bands. Noted for its accurate intonation, free-blowing quality and projection, many players feel it is first choice for the job.
The 9812 ‘orchestral model’ features a 19-inch bell, straight leadpipe with a less resistant taper giving a more open, orchestral sound, and redesigned tuning slides.
Also available:
BE9822-1 clear lacquer, S-shaped leadpipe
