Description
Early 70's Medium bore slide (0.525″) with large bore bell.For the first trombone work in large symphony or concert orchestras. Remarkable high register so essential for modern symphony work. Beautiful, broad and sonorous tone, full of life. Abundant tone-volume and carrying power. No risk of over blowing this instrument as there is no player with sufficient power to reach the limit of its fortissimo.
Condition
This trombone is in good condition, the bell has a lot of scars from past damage. The slide is an 7.5/8 out of 10. the horn has most of the lacquer taken off from years of use. This is a great trombone for anyone looking for a medium bore horn.
The case is in rough shape, can ship with or without case.
History
Bach started producing trombones in the 1932’s in New York with their Model 16. The earliest horns wear the New York stamp on the bell. It was here that the early development proved Bach was a serious and talented craftsman. As the popularity for his product grew, he expanded production to Mt. Vernon, NY. It was here that many believe the most magical instruments finally came to life. In fact the quality of his later Mt. Vernon instruments was so incredible, it was one of the most driving factors to Vincent Bach being purchased by the Selmer company in the 1960’s. In an effort to carry on his legacy, he agreed to sell to Selmer, and made it a priority for him to re-locate not only the factory, but himself to Elkhart, IN in 1965 to oversee production, and ensure the instruments bearing his name, would maintain the quality he worked so hard to establish. In fact many people might argue that these earliest Elkhart Bach trumpets, may be even slightly better than some of the later Mt. Vernon trumpets simply because of the close attention Vincent Bach put into Quality Control.

Conclusion
A Special letter from our President and Founder:
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit our auctions! The story of my company starts right here with this eBay account, nearly 20 years ago. On September 11th, 2001 the United States was attacked, and the world changed seemingly overnight. At the time, I was a young craftsman who had just a year earlier graduated from the most reputable musical instrument repair program in the world, Minnesota State College, in Red Wing, MN. I had taken a position as an Apprentice with a premiere Custom Trombone manufacture in the Boston, MA area. While I was fortunate enough to keep my job after a series of layoffs that came after the attacks, my hours were drastically cut back to 15 hours a week. Driven by the necessity to put food on the table I engaged the passion I had for vintage musical instruments, and the skills I had learned into my own business. If you’ll notice the date when this eBay account was started, (Sept. 28, 2001) is a snapshot in time, when my life changed, and I started to realize an amazing opportunity in life that has become something truly remarkable. I have always enjoyed finding quality instruments, properly servicing and conditioning them, and making them available here to the eBay community.
As we prepare to serve the eBay community with our 20th year of service, we want to say thank you for allowing us to serve you! Thank you for your trust. Thank you for allowing us to do what we love! We are blessed to have grown into the company we are today. I am so proud to be surrounded by a team of such exceptional and dedicated people that make this company run.
