Vincent Bach combined his unique talents as both an accomplished musician and a talented 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. The Bach 18 series Bb trumpets are the most versatile available offering more options that meet the demanding needs of today's most discriminating players. The Bach 1843R features Bach's antimicrobial lacquer to give this instrument a natural barrier to bacteria and deactivates viruses. The Bach 180 series trumpets are the number one selling professional trumpets in the world. The 180R series feature standard weight bodies with standard weight one-piece hand-hammered professional bells and reversed #25LR leadpipes. This unique construction offers less resistance from the reverse leadpipe and the projection of a standard weight #43 bell. The silver-plate finish provides a controlled brilliance to the overall sound. The 18043R with a .459" medium-large bore gives a player a more open feel and response resulting in an instrument that is well suited for all types of music. .459" Medium-large bore Standard weight body Standard weight yellow brass one-piece hand-hammered #43 bell Reverse construction #25LR mouthpipe Monel pistons 1st slide thumb saddle Adjustable 3rd slide rod stop Silver plate finish Bach 7C mouthpiece
