Description
This Bach Stradivarius LT190L1B Commercial Bb Trumpet S/n 760698 is a premium, professional-tier lead instrument engineered specifically for high-register performance, commercial gigs, and show work.
Manufactured around the mid-2010s based on its 700,000-range serial number, this model blends vintage Vincent Bach design choices with modern metallurgy to maximize projection and agility.
Great Slides and Valve Compression. One minor fingerprint size blemish on the bell, but does not affect the playing in any way.
Key Specifications
- Bore Size: 0.462″ Large Bore
- Bell: 5″ lightweight bronze #1 taper (“T” bell) featuring a flat French-style bead rim
- Leadpipe: Modified #43 standard taper
- Valves: 3 Monel pistons inside a two-piece brass casing with bronze balusters
- Slide Tubing: Lightweight brass outer tubes combined with lightweight nickel-silver inner tubes
Performance Features
- Agile Upper Register: The lightweight bronze bell structure features a wider choke and higher copper content, resulting in rapid instrument response and an easier upper register while retaining a centered, warm tonal core.
- Maximum Vibration: Built with minimal structural bracing and lightweight crescent-shaped half-moon slide pulls to remove excess weight, allowing the horn to vibrate freely.
- Dual Tuning Slides: The horn ships from the manufacturer with two distinct main tuning slides: a traditional D-shape slide for standard resistance and a single-radius rounded slide for a more open, free-blowing feel.
- Efficient Airflow: Outfitted with a forward-facing 2nd valve slide and low-profile push-button Amato water keys to minimize internal air disturbance.
