I am selling my like-new Bach VBS196 Bb/A/G Long Model Piccolo Trumpet. This is in silver plate and I am the original owner of this horn purchasing it new. I am a Bach Artist but was playing another brand of piccolo until Bach released these.It has never been damaged or altered and doesn't have a single dent or ding. Everything functions and looks like new. The horn was a result of a collaboration between Bach and Stomvi and is the first long model piccolo Bach produced. It was discontinued when the Artisan collection was introduced and are very similar to the Artisan model. Only around 200 were made and were very popular when released. I'm only selling because I like lacquer instruments better and found an Artisan I like equally as well.From the Conn-Selmer Website:The Vincent Bach model VBS196 is a versatile long bell piccolo trumpet with a lively sound. It combines a .401" bore with a one-piece hand-hammered long yellow brass bell resulting in both great projection and effervescent timber. Four Monel pistons extend the range to low. Two separate A and Bb mouthpipes with trumpet shank mouthpiece receivers are designed to optimize the tuning in both Bb and A. An extra whole step 4th valve slide enable the trumpet to be played in the key of G when using the A mouthpipe and depressing the 4th valve. The VBS196 is a versatile and nimble piccolo trumpet well suited for all types of playing.Vincent Bach - Piccolo trumpet, key of A/Bb, .401" bore, one-piece hand-hammered long yellow brass bell, four valves, mouthpipes for Bb and A, extra fourth slide for key of G, Monel pistons, Bob Reeves valve alignment, silver plate finish, HLBLP1 leather gig bag case.
