The 42BO is Bach's best-selling Stradivarius symphonic trombone. Its 8-1/2" one-piece hand-hammered bell has defined the orchestral trombone sound for generations, and the .547" large bore with an open wrap F attachment gives you clarity and projection with less resistance. It's an excellent choice for orchestral, band, and solo playing.

What sets it apart

  • Open wrap F attachment: the F tubing has fewer tight turns, so the F side feels freer and closer to the open horn.
  • Standard rotor valve: Bach's traditional rotary valve design.
  • Chrome-plated nickel silver inner slides: a smooth, quick handslide.
  • Clear lacquer: adds a subtle warmth to the sound.
