The Bach Stradivarius Trumpet will give you a quality you can rely on with a 72 bell (faster taper than the 43 bell), standard weight body and bell, and standard construction #25 leadpipe. The Bach 72 bell offers a strong, powerful sound that is darker than the Bach 37 bell, so it might work better depending on what sound you're looking to create.
