Description

The year 2018 represented a milestone in the history of Vincent Bach. Having started his business in 1918, master craftsman Vincent Bach created a legacy with the introduction of the first Bach trumpets in 1924 and the addition of trombones to the Vincent Bach line around 1928.

To celebrate a legacy lasting 100 years, Conn Selmer and Vincent Bach proudly present the new 42BOF commemorative trombone. A traditional 42 bell, with the ultimate in tonal response and ability to change the color of sound. Bell-free bracing allows the bell to vibrate freely, creating a quicker response with more clarity and projection.

A European designed “Open-Flow” valve, creates an ease of playability in the low register, while maintaining a great high range as well. Jay Friedman, principal trombonist with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, was involved with the design of this trombone.
