[TPIN] Bach Strads in the fall

[Rebekah Mortensen]

I was talking to a guy the other day who was a jupiter
dealer about Bachs.  He told me that he stopped
dealing with bach because one out of every three horns
he ordered from them sounded great while the other two
didn't.  The guy said it was because selmer paris
bought bach.  I don't know how true this is, but I
just thought it might help with your speculations,
Rebekah.
