This is a beautiful silver, used Bach Stradivarius Model 37 Medium Large (ML) bore. Year of manufacture 1974. It was used throughout my senior year in high school and during my college years. After that it was not used for many years so I cleaned the silver as it had become a bit tarnished. In addition I just had it serviced by Schmitt Music in early 2019 to ensure it is in good working order. Please see the picture of the receipt. It’s in a brand new case that was bought from the factory in 2018. It had a dent worked on by Bach back in the late 1970s due to a dent on the bell. You can still see a bit of a’ripple’ in the bell. I sent it back in for re-work again in 2019 in preparation for this sale but they indicated that the could not restore it any further. See the last two pictures for what that looks like. It’s subtle / hard to see, but it is there and it is something to be aware of before you choose to own it. Overall this is an incredible instrument. When I played it as a young man I was away so proud to have such a wonderful trumpet. There is no world in which I will play it anymore so it’s time for someone else to own and play it.
