What they say

During their development, French Besson trumpets have been tested and critiqued by many professional trumpet players throughout the USA and Canada. Each of these trumpets are equipped with Najoom trumpet leadpipes, hand crafted to exacting tolerances by Najoom Music Products, Inc. They are checked to see if all specifications are correct (i.e. brace placement etc.), if there are any scratches or dents, and most importantly, if they play well. Due to precise design specifications and careful assembly, few are rejected. Of all the years working on various trumpets, the French Besson Classic Bb and C are the first and only trumpets of his exclusive design on which Dennis Najoom has performed with the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, and as a soloist.
