We present a unified formalism for the analysis of mesons. It is provided by a symmetry preserving Schwinger-Dyson-Bethe-Salpeter-Equation (SDBSE) treatment of a vector-vector contact interaction. The contact interaction (CI) model offers a simple-to-implement alternative to perform exploratory studies of QCD, within the SDBSE framework. Within the limitation of this model, we calculate the spectrum of D and B mesons. Our results are in agreement within 2% when compare with experimental data, lattice QCD and other SDBSE calculations involving sophisticated interaction kernels.
