  There is something to add under your tree...

Band Supplies has a special Christmas offer on at the moment — and it's just perfect for you to enjoy the festive season with an extra bit of Prestige to your name.

Prestige cornet

Buy a brilliant Besson Prestige cornet and we will ensure that Santa adds a full set of mutes to go with it to fill any left under your tree.

The offer will be available in the Band Supplies Leeds and Glasgow stores or from the website — or you can also give us a call or email us as soon as possible to avoid disappointment on Christmas morning.
