Overview

A reversed leadpipe gives the Bach Stradivarius trumpet its snappy response and lower breath resistance, paired with a one-piece bell for the classic Bach sound. Monel valves and nickel-silver outer slides handle the mechanics, inside a lightweight silver-plated brass body.

A focused, character-filled sound with a brilliant hint from the silver plating is what the maker describes, with durable valves and straightforward adjustment. The listing's model name differs from the part number, so confirm the exact model.

Who it's for

Advancing players and professionals in jazz, orchestra or band who want the Bach sound and a quick response. Beginners on a first horn may find a student model easier to handle.
