The Selmer Bach Model 1530 is a durable, well-built B♭ trumpet designed for student and developing intermediate players. Produced during the 1970s under the Vincent Bach / H. & A. Selmer banner, the 1530 became known as a dependable instrument for beginning and advancing trumpet students, as well as a practical secondary or marching horn.

The 1530 combines straightforward, traditional trumpet design with the durability expected of a student instrument. Yellow-brass body and bell construction, a three-piston valve design, and B♭ configuration provide a familiar playing experience suited to beginning players, school band programs, developing musicians, and anyone looking for a reliable second trumpet. The three-piston layout uses the standard fingering system found on modern B♭ trumpets, while the yellow brass contributes to the instrument's traditional response and tonal character.

Our featured instrument has seen a few marching band events over the years. There are many scratches throughout the body and a few dings and minor pings can be detected, along with some metal wear on the structure of the trumpet. Our technician has adjusted the trumpet for General Playing Conditions. This package includes the trumpet, a hardshell plush-lined case, and a Vincent Bach 7C mouthpiece.

The B411XX serial number places this trumpet within the vintage 1970s production period associated with the Bach/Selmer student trumpet lines, built in Elkhart, Indiana, during the era when H. & A. Selmer was producing instruments carrying the Vincent Bach name. It's a good fit for concert and school band, lessons and practice, marching and outdoor use, or as a vintage secondary horn for players and collectors alike.
