Thanks for watching, everybody!! A couple corrections…
- The tubing walls are much thinner on this Bach, hence why modern slides do not fit. The inner bore might still be the same/very similar size.
- Despite the heavy caps, the horn is still on the lighter side for a Bach! Less bracing and thinner tubing as mentioned.
Just saw this. Exactly. The thinner walls of the lightweight tubing.
Hey!! Thanks for the shoutout!
This was a great video!!
My teacher, John J. Haynie, played this model. He loved it.
I think the bore should be .459. Probably lightweight bore tubing giving you the difference between fit between it and your other Bach.
So glad you liked it, Dave! I agree with Haynie-it’s a wonderful horn! You’re probably right that it’s still .459, but it does seem to choke off a little for me in the lower register (factors out of bore size’s control, in all likelihood.)
Does Bach make any large bore trumpets? I’m kinda getting tired of .459 bores since I prefer .462 and above and I really want a Bach, but it seems that every trumpet they sell is .459.
@@sceu25 that’s their standard bore size, but yes, absolutely they have large bore models, in .462!
Vincent Bach designed complimentary bell and leadpipe combinations in various bore sizes. This means the leadpipe is matched to suit the bell, generally speaking. Thus Bachs tend to play similarly, regardless of bore size.
Nice video and good playing! I am a fan of these horns and I own one also. There is a certificate of authenticity that came with each horn from Bach. They were produced in 1986 and model 195 has the 43 bell, model 194 has the 37 bell. I believe there were to be 1,000 of each model made. Each horn has a gold trim kit with standard weight valve caps (not heavy weight) and gold plate inside the bell. They were a combination of standard and light weight parts, ie: standard weight body, light weight slides. That is probably why the modern slide does not fit in that horn. They were the prototype for lightweight horns that improved response.
They were the first of Conn-Selmer’s “Anniversary” trumpets. Recently, they have issued 50th Anniversary (37 bell) and 100th Anniversary (43 bell) trumpets as well as a gold plated Anniversary 3C trumpet mouthpiece.
Thanks for the comment, Tim! I appreciate the info and I'm glad you like your 195.
It was the 43 anniversary model that got me interested in Bach.
I’d really like to try a 50th anniversary sometime! Fairly recent, but seems cool.
I have this trumpet gold plated. Love it. X-Large bore 43*. Very free blowing and great sound.
Sounds like an incredibly fun one! I'd love to play a gold-plated Bach someday.
Great review, interesting history, too!
Looks like kitty had had enough by the time you recorded the Berstein. haha
You’d be surprised, those two kitties have sat by my side through some high notes! Guess they weren’t feeling it that day though!
Great video Samuel!👍👍👏👏
There’s an interview Rashawn Ross did a couple months ago where he was talking about working with Bach on horns. Bach told him they needed to work on a “commercial horn.” To which Ross replied “You already have one. It’s called the 37. Jerry Hey man.”
Funny story, but Rashawn is definitely a freak of nature in the way he plays, though. I imagine only about 10% of commercial players are able to get that sort of sound out of a stock Bach 37. Matt Doe of Too Many Zooz played some sort of stock Bach (could still be a 43) for a long time but I think he ended up stripping the silver.

Happy Friday Sam!
Great review!
Thank you!
idk who you are or why your in my reccomendations
but ill subscribe because why the hell not
Glad to hear! Plenty more brass content on the way!
You’re becoming more and more the American answer to Trent Hamilton
He was my first inspiration, about five or six years ago!
@@SamuelPlaysBrass yep me too, love him to bits, his comedy is gold
You like HarryJames at the end
I do enjoy Harry James a lot. He’s one of the people I base my sound on, although only in very specific scenarios as you heard.
@@SamuelPlaysBrassI hear it😊
My horn bucks me around a lot
I own a 50th . Never heard of the 25th
That’s 50 years of Bach manufacturing in Elkhart, or the model 190. This is the 195, which marks 25 years since merging with Conn-Selmer.
@@SamuelPlaysBrass Got it. Mine is built like my Mt Vernon was and plays the same . I’m trying a Bach 101/4 CW mouthpiece . It’s working better for me so far
@@paulgrimm I really hope to try the 190 or a Mt. Vernon someday! Very curious to see how the sound/feel concept of trumpets has changed for Bach since then.
@@SamuelPlaysBrass The 50th Anniversary is pretty close . Mine is in silver . Horn trader has a great video of the 50th. He also compares it to his Mt Vernon . He was pretty impressed with the 50th . Check it out
@@SamuelPlaysBrass I’m just a old come back player myself . I’m not that good ,but I appreciate a nice horn and really enjoy your videos and your playing ability
