One-Piece Bell
Bach Stradivarius trumpets are famous for their fullness of sound and projection. This is achieved by the use of one-piece construction, allowing for unrestricted vibration of the bell. The shape of the tapered surface, or rate of bell flare, determines the characteristic sound of the instrument. Bells with fast tapers produce dark, warm sounds, while slow tapers yield bright tones.
Bach offers many bell options. The number designation on a Bach bell refers to the mandrel (tooling used to shape the flare) number, not to any diameter or measurement (for example, all Bb trumpet bells have the same diameter).
Monel Pistons and Valves
The use of non-corrosive Monel metal for pistons was pioneered by Vincent Bach. Carefully aligned ports, enclosed bronze springs, and hand-lapped fit assure years of light, troublefree action. Nylon guides eliminate valve noise.
