Vincent Bach combined his unique talents as both a musician and an engineer to create brass instruments of unequalled tonal quality. Often copied but never duplicated, Bach Stradivarius instruments today remain the sound choice of artists worldwide.
FEATURES
The Bach Stradivarius model 196 is a versatile short bell piccolo trumpet with a signature Bach sound. It combines a .401" bore with a one-piece hand-hammered short yellow brass bell resulting in both great projection and broad timber. Four Monel pistons extend the range to low. Two separate A and Bb mouthpipes with trumpet shank mouthpiece receivers are designed to optimize the tuning in both Bb and A. The clear lacquer finish provides a subtle warmth to the overall sound. The 196 is a versatile and nimble piccolo trumpet well suited for all types of playing.
