Which Schilke BB sounds closest to a Bach 37?

For those of you who are suggesting the S32 as the Schilke Bb that sounds closest to a Bach 37, did you actually play one side-by-side an S32HD or S33HD? Almost twenty years ago, I purchased a Schilke S32 to replace my early Elkhart Bach 37.

What is the difference between Schilke BB and S series mouthpipes?

The tubing wall and material are the same, however the greatest difference is bell material and wall plus the addition of the tuning slide brace. The S-series mouthpipe shape is much broader akin to a Bach 43 and made of yellow brass, so it has more of a Bach feel and sound. FWIW our shop manager, Tim Cote plays this model Schilke Bb.

What is the difference between a Schilke s33hd and S33 HD?

The S33HD is a heavy-walled B2 with a side seamed bell rather than a drawn bell. The Schilke S HD series gives their horns more core/warmth for lack of a better word. The even-ness of scale on a Schilke is next to none.

What is the closest Schilke Horn to a B2?

The S32 is the closest in specs. The B5 might be the 37*ish closest. The S33HD is a heavy-walled B2 with a side seamed bell rather than a drawn bell. The Schilke S HD series gives their horns more core/warmth for lack of a better word.
