Bb Bach Stradivarius
Models |
Finish
1 - Highly polished brass bell with nickel silver
trimming. |
$125.00 |
Finish
1 1/2 - Highly polished brass, entire instrument
lacquered and baked.
Transparent lacquer should be given preference
because a heavier coat can be applied with
discoloring the instrument. We use the best
material and the finish is applied in the best
possible manner, but no guarantee can be given.
Lacquer is not a permanent finish as the following
statement by the "national Association of Band
Instrument Manufacturers will indicate: "Lacquer is
only a temporary finish and should be sold as such." |

The cost of lacquering
used instruments is higher because the instrument must
first be thoroughly cleaned, overhauled, and all dents and
scratches removed. Even the slightest finger mark
would cause the lacquer to peel. The instrument being
free of dents, lacquering costs approximately $7.50
including cleaning and polishing. All other repairs
are charged for in addition and are subject to our regular
rates based on the actual working-time necessary to perform
first class job.
Extras
If an extra tuning slide
with a nickel silver quick-change-to-A rotary valve is
desired, the price is $15.00 additional in brass finish,
$18.00 silver plated, $25.00 gold plated.
