The A47X is one of nine standard combinations in the Vincent Bach modular Artisan trombone range offering a wide choice of bells, valve sections, tuning slides and hand slides.

The model combines an Artisan A47X valve section and a model 47 bell. The X-wrap design was developed to achieve a balanced resistance and improved air flow throughout the valve section.
