I got a Besson for my 11 year old.  It is certainly adequate and it can make
a decent sound.  For a child of small stature I think its 3/4 size and light
weight are advantageous.

   I once tested a Bessen student sized F horn for a young student; I
thought it was better than all the other F student horns I tested, mostly
Yamaha. The notes were well centered and intonation was very good. I would
have been willing to play it in a concert.
