Vincent Bach – Bracing
Braces
“Early differences are the nickel hex braces, this changed in around 1940 to what we are familiar with today.”
Thanks to Marco Rippert who provided the concept and initial measurements of key bracing locations. Note the potential variation required to get the fullest sound from your Bach trumpet.
