Bach 42B Stradivarius Professional F-Attachment Trombone - Lacquer with Open
Tenor Trombone with Open Wrap F Attachment, 0.547" Bore, 8.5" Yellow Brass Bell, Yellow Brass Outer Slide, and Nickel Silver Inner Slide - Clear Lacquer
Pairs Perfectly with the Professional Player
The Bach 42BO has been a mainstay in professional circles since it first hit the market. In fact, generations of musicians have trusted their tone to this tenor trombone. This professional symphonic horn is constructed from yellow brass to give you a classic tone with a generous serving of low-end presence and treble detail. That's not all that this magnificent trombone has to offer you, however; it's equipped with an open wrap F attachment to enable alternate positions, a more comprehensive range of low tones, and a range of creative slide work during complex passages. You'll appreciate the premium features, including a 1-piece, hand-hammered yellow brass bell for hall-filling projection along with a large bore for easier blowing. On top of that, the 42BO has a chrome-plated nickel silver inner slide and a yellow brass outer slide for speedy slurs and groovy glissandos. Players of all types choose the 42BO for its ability to fit into any style, setting, and visual presentation. Think of the 42BO as a sonic paintbrush — all you have to do is pick it up and apply it to your musical canvas for amazingly expressive results.
F attachment with open wrap
Bach's team of engineers consider the F attachment as a vital component that contributes to the overall tone — an attitude that's not shared by some of the other major manufacturers. Bach opted for an open wrap instead of the traditional closed wrap that has a reputation for choking tone and making it nigh on impossible to hit a C2 without using pedal tones. The open wrap and large bore diameter of 0.547 inches facilitate a playing experience that feels like the attachment isn’t even there. You’ll appreciate the ergonomically placed standard rotor valve and the spot-on intonation provided by the separate tuning slide.
1-piece, hand-hammered bell
Bach fitted the 42BO with a 1-piece bell made of yellow brass. It flares out to an impressive 8.5 inches for robust projection needed in big band and pit band settings. The craftspeople at Bach hammer the bell by hand to ensure it delivers the sound that’s defined symphonic trombone for decades. Providing a cutting and resonant tone, the yellow brass also has a reputation for reacting favorably to a player's unique style.
And the most skilled trombonists here at Sweetwater can even make their yellow brass horns sound brighter or darker to perfectly fit into any arrangement. For robust low end and clear highs, you can count on your 42BO to get you there.
Bach: the professional choice
Often copied but never truly imitated, Bach trombones are the choice of players worldwide. Vincent Bach founded Bach brass in 1918 after a mouthpiece repair went wrong. By 1928, Bach introduced trombones into his lineup. Bach’s famous trombone designs stemmed from a combination of his musical know-how and engineering talent. He successfully identified what he needed from a trombone and set about creating an instrument that could solve the unique issues experienced by trombone players — and he never looked back. More than a century later, Bach instruments are proudly crafted in Elkhart, Indiana, to the same lofty standards as those from the ’20s and ’30s.
