The first selection comes with eight Besson Prestige cornets with just minor marks and wear.

Each will come with a Black Dyke certificate of heritage provenance presented by Director Music, Prof Nicholas Childs, as well as the original hard case, 1 year's free insurance and a free instrument maintenance kit.
