From the Bach 1961 catalog:

"Bach trumpets are noted for their luscious tone, excellent intonation, great flexibility, and uniform response in all registers and on all tones, but the are especially liked for their easy high register and because they definitely increase the player's endurance. Owing to the exacting demands made on present day artists - often the must play recording and radio engagements in addition to their regular evening performance - fine equipment has become of paramount importance, and that is why more and more artists are relying on the BACH. Because of its instantaneous and unfailing response, the BACH enables one to do their BEST at all times. Its sparkling tone, powerful resonance and brilliant high register inspire supreme confidence and a new, exhilarating freedom that can be expressed in every style of playing."

On the Medium-Large bore:

"The most popular model among legitimate musicians, symphony, artists, soloists, or concert band members. Also very popular among rhythmic artists. Emits a clear, martial tone, brilliant and compact, very responsive. No matter how powerful the tone is compact and therefore offers a player great endurance. Played by a competent artist, the tone will sound brilliant when played staccato or fortissimo or will be mellow when played softly or mezzo forte. This model deserves to be recommended for all around work."

 

Still the most popular trumpet in the world, the Bach Stradivarius trumpet is a fantastic horn for any player and any situation. The Mt. Vernon era of these horns is highly sought after due to their sound and ease of playability.
