Won an auction on Shopgoodwill for a Bach 310 Shephards crook cornet . It will arrive tomorrow.

Wondering how the two cornets compare? What are you experience with these cornets?

I think the cr310 is a fantastic little cornet. It’s got a really nice cornet sound with a 5b and down right traditional with a Wick 4. I will not part with mine

Same here. I have a Bach 310, and it is really handy, and changes depending on mouthpiece. Mine came with a Bach 6, and sounds really traditional with that piece. I play mainly Marcinkiewicz, and a 301 works really well too. I have a Boston cookie-cutter, and the 310 sounds very much like a flugelhorn with that piece.

The Bach 310 cornet arrived today. It came with a S series 5 B mouthpiece. Played a little today. Like the sound, haven't decided on what mouthpiece I will pair it with yet.

I’ve heard they approach the Strad 184 in many ways.
I love how short it is and the valve action is quite good. I wish mine had triggers. I personally wouldn’t call it a mere student horn

Decided on my mouthpiece choices on my Bach 310 Shephard's crook cornet. Using my Denis Wick 2 C cornet mouthpiece and Yamaha 16 E mouthpiece.

Still trying to figure out, why the mouthpiece receiver on this cornet is CR 300 instead of CR 310.

Perhaps the receiver was changed or the whole leadpipe. They are nice cornets though, so much so that I often wonder if I need a a matching cr300

Show my Bach 310 to my music teacher. He looked at the cornet, showed my the signs of the repair. Guess they didn't have a 310 receiver.

Had two Bach 300 cornets, one was excellent and the other was a dog.

Staying with Shepherds crook cornets.

Won a bid on a trumpet yesterday on Shopgoodwill. This will be my backup trumpet.
