 |

I very much like the Bach 1x rim and would like to have one made with a c cup.
Would it be best to just buy a 1x and a 1 1/2 C and have them threaded or would it be better to have one made up?
In either case, what maker would you recommend to do one or the other?
I read in an old thread that John Mohan had a whole set of underparts made for 1x rims but he didn’t say where he had it done.
If anybody could recommend a maker in Europe, that would be even better.
Thanks for your suggestions and experiences. |

Hey there,
Curry sells a bunch of prefabricated designs. The 1X rim is also known as the 1H rim, and he makes them as a 1HC, 1HB, 1HBC, etc. That rim shape is very, very common in the trumpet world. You can also get something very similar from Parke (650 rim), Laskey, Hammond, and others.
