Vincent Bach's trumpets, trombones, and mouthpieces are among the most in-demand brass instruments for students and professionals. The music enthusiasts claim that they often choose Bach instruments due to the superb tones they produce.
However, tone quality is not the only reason Bach's brass instruments receive such a good reputation — several other reasons exist.
Milano Music Center, a leading seller and renter of music instruments in Mesa, AZ, East Valley, South Scottsdale, and the valley, sheds light on Bach and its leading instruments to help you understand why people like the brand.
About Bach Instruments
Bach brass instruments were the brainchild of Vincent Bach, a seasoned musician, and engineer. Vincent started and operated a small company that handcrafted mouthpieces, trumpets, and trombones.
Though small, Vincent Bach's company gained fame quickly due to its reputation for making brass instruments with an excellent built and tonal quality. On his 71st birthday, Selmer acquired the Vincent Bach brand.
Even after exchanging hands, the Bach brand did not lose its reputation. Selmer used Vincent Bach's original blueprints to make the instruments, except for a few improvements on construction, finish, response, and tone.
Instruments Selected by Master Artists
Besides using Vincent Bach's blueprints, Selmer has maintained the brand's reputation by subjecting each instrument to a rigorous quality testing process before selling. The company collaborates with legendary artists who play, test, and critique the instruments' sound quality.
After the testing process, the master artists document the tonal characteristics of each instrument to help you pick a trumpet, mouthpiece, or trombone with the specific sound quality you want.
Bach Trumpets
Vincent handcrafted the first trumpet in 1925. Since then, the instrument has undergone a series of improvements to become what it is today — a trumpet with solid construction and exceptional sound quality.
Selmer produces trumpets for professional, student, and intermediate skill levels. The professional-level features trumpets with the highest construction standards, sound quality, and ease of playing. They are great for trumpeters with excellent skill.
Student trumpets are inexpensive units with a modest construction and sound quality. They are easy to play, a reason why our experts recommend them for trumpeters with little or no trumpeting skills.
Intermediate trumpets are a few steps above beginner rivals. They have a rugged construction, narrow bore, and good sound quality. They are suitable for trumpeters who are past the beginner level.
Some of the reasons people love Bach trumpets include:
- The instruments provide the signature, superior Bach sound
- The instruments last longer than rival models
- The instruments come in multiple models to choose from
- The instruments are subjected to rigorous quality checks
- The instruments are easy to play
Bach Trombones
The Bach trombones boast excellent fullness of sound and construction quality. Selmer, the current manufacturer of Bach trombones, produces multiple types of tenor, bass, standard tenor, and alto trombones.
Experts at our rental stores in Mesa, AZ, South Scottsdale, East Valley, and the valley classify the models into the professional, student, and step-up levels. Professional trombones are made from high-end materials to offer a more nuanced sound quality.
Step-up trombones are suitable for intermediate-level trombonists with good embouchure strength and air support. The trombones offer a clean sound, and they are responsive.
Beginner trombones are made with young artists in mind. They have a small-bore size, a feature that makes them easy to produce sound with little air. Like other Bach trombones, the beginner category is responsive and rugged.
Bach trombones stand out because they:
- Have great tone quality
- Last longer than competitors of the same class
- Have a stylish lacquer finish
- Are exceptionally responsive
Bach Mouthpieces
The mouthpiece is a flagship of the Bach instruments. This piece has an easy response coupled with excellent volume and intonation.
Since players have different lip and tooth formations, Selmer produces multiple versions to help each unique player find a mouthpiece that fits their unique tonguing, embouchure, and endurance capabilities.
What's more? The mouthpieces are free of lead, a poisonous substance in the cheap parts used in low-end mouthpieces.
