Pros: Great sound, clear, many options, very responsive
Cons: i can't stop dinging mine! lol

I have a Bach LT180 47 bell and ML bore. I love this instrument. It's very responsive and has a beautiful tone. I use it all around, in marching band, jazz band, in church, and concert band. It's a great horn and i recomend people to try it out if their looking for a great, professional, all around horn, but to remember to leave your options open and try out other horns and try to find you take ur time to make sure you get a horn you love compared to the others and fits what you need! hope i helped

Pros: Great lead horn
Cons:

I have a LT-180 with a 43 bell, it is a great
horn . The sound is brighter, but it still has that Bach sound. I have had this horn for
twenty-plus years and used it in every type
of playing situation.

Pros: Fantastic sound, Great intonation and very responsive
Cons:

Bought it second hand coming from an old Yammy Pro. It is a magnificant horn that is the best I have played. A mate is getting a shilke (G'day A.T.) and I am interested in comparing the horns.

Pros: Excellent lively tone,
Cons: Extremely easy to dent it.

I have two of these horns (LT180s 43: LT180 43 with the 43 leadpipe too) for more than a year now and they are excellent trumpets. very bright but still has core to it's sound and still sounds like the original bachs except it's easy to bring your music alive with it because its very good response and sound. I use the lacquer one for marching band, the other one for jazz, concert band, church, solos and everything else.

Pros: Great sound... valves fantastic
Cons: bach tends to be inconsistent nowadays...

While a great horn, the Strads of today tend to be inconsistent.
Mine was made in the late 80s, has great valves and a good sound, but I got lucky.
Go with a Schilke B1, or S32.
