This is a very nice playing Bach Stradivarius 18025 from the early 70's, I believe. It has the Corporation bell and the two tone valve block that are now rather famous and sought after. I find the 18025 to be a really nice model to play. While it is slightly larger than the more common ML bore, the bell is a bit trimmer. I feel a slightly more open blow in the front half of the horn and a little more to lean against in the back end of the horn; it's a combination that I find very enjoyable. I play this with 3 mouthpieces; beginning with a rather shallow Monette BLM with a large throat and a pretty big drill size, then a deep V cupped ACB TA-TF, and lastly with a Bach Mt. Vernon 7C. Enjoy! :)
