Here we have a Bach 229 C Trumpet for sale. These trumpets have been a staple among classical and orchestral musicians for decades and are valued for their rich and broad sound.
This horn comes to us on consignment and it is in beautiful shape. The only signs of use being some light surface scratching primarily around the bell. There are also a few very small pings on the bell crook, second valve slide, and a patch on the 3rd valve slide. Beyond this, the horn is in excellent shape and plays even better. Valve action and compression is great, and the slides all move freely. This horn also features a 25H leadpipe and gold trim kit!

From Bach:
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.
- The C180SL229W30 features a #229 one-piece hand-hammered professional bell that produces a big, rich, slightly broader sound with great projection.
- The #25H leadpipe offers a free-blowing feel and a bigger tone with more flexibility.
- The silver plate finish provides a controlled brilliance to the overall sound.
- These features combined with a .462 large bore allow the player to produce a well-rounded sound well suited for all orchestral literature.
