Bach Stradivarius 72MLV S/n 802049 AS new with original Case and Mpc
Bach Stradivarius 72MLV trumpet with serial number 802049 is a premium, professional-level instrument built with highly desirable historic specifications. Given its “like new” condition with the original case and mouthpiece, it carries significant value for collectors, jazz soloists, and classical orchestral players alike.
Specifications
- Model 72 Bell: This model features a wider bell flare compared to the standard 37. It delivers a broader, darker, and much fuller core sound that can easily project and handle aggressive playing without distorting. [1, 2, 3]
- MLV Bore (Vindabona): The “Medium-Large Vindabona” design features a unique stepped bore. It starts tighter near the valves (.448″) and expands out to a large bore (.459″). This architecture mimics the warm, conical characteristics of a cornet but retains the projection and sizzle of a cylindrical trumpet.
- Serial Number (802049): Authentic American-made Bach Stradivarius pro horns traditionally utilize a 6-digit sequence stamped into the second valve casing. A serial number starting in the 800,000 range places its assembly date at the factory in Elkhart, Indiana. Vincent Bach (a subsidiary of Conn-Selmer) reset and overhauled portions of their serial sequence, officially launching the 800,000 block in 2023 to denote updated production and new series lines. With serial number
802049, your horn is a contemporary, modern-production masterpiece that left the Elkhart, Indiana factory within the last few years.
