Mt. Vernon Bach 1C Trumpet Mouthpiece - Boyde Hood Collection
Vincent Bach Mt. Vernon 1C Trumpet Mouthpiece
From the renowned Boyde Hood Collection comes an exceptional Vincent Bach Mt. Vernon 1C trumpet mouthpiece, one of the most sought-after models from the most celebrated era of Bach production.
The Mt. Vernon 1C occupies a special place among vintage Bach mouthpieces. Favored by players seeking a large, powerful sound with tremendous depth and presence, these mouthpieces have become increasingly difficult to find, particularly in original condition. Among collectors and performers alike, the Mt. Vernon 1C is considered one of the cornerstone models of the vintage Bach lineup.
This example is in excellent condition, a rarity for a mouthpiece of this vintage. The rim shows only minor wear from careful use, while the shank exhibits light insertion marks consistent with decades of conscientious ownership. The engraving remains sharp and clear, and the overall presentation is outstanding.
Importantly, this mouthpiece retains its original #27 throat. Many vintage Bach mouthpieces were altered during their playing careers, making original examples such as this increasingly scarce.
Simply put, it is uncommon to encounter a Mt. Vernon 1C, and rarer still to find one preserved at this level. Whether destined for a collection or active use, this mouthpiece represents an opportunity to acquire one of the most desirable vintage Bach models ever produced.
