Lechgold BH-19/4GL Baritone Gold Brass

I use the baritone as a second instrument alongside my trombone.
The workmanship and intonation are good. The response is a little more difficult. All in all, I am satisfied. It is certainly suitable as a beginner's instrument.

The horn is very easy to play in all registers and has a very beautiful sound!

Unfortunately the intonation is very difficult. Most notes are 30ct too low.

When I bought this instrument two years ago, I played euphonium (bulky due to its weight, the valves were slow and you had to bend to read the notes), since then I continue to play the euphonium and bass registers, but also the baritone one, as it is very fast thanks to its four paddles and the sideways inclined horn opens the sight. It is very practical to drain the water as there is no slide to dismantle, it all comes out through the water flap as the paddles are arranged in a row. The contrast of the three lacquer colors makes it very nice compared to other baritones. I changed the mouthpiece because it didn't fit me, but the original one is perfectly playable. The instrument is light but not easy to set up, there are two eyelets for a strap, I fitted a wide fabric handbag strap, there should be a protector for the left hand as it gets scratched by wearing a ring. Other than that, the case that comes with it is very protective, certainly bulky made of polyurethane foam in a fabric cover with a zipper and a side pocket where I put three eyeglass cases, a pencil case and an eyeglass case. I have a lot of fun with this instrument and would therefore recommend it to those who play tenor.

I've been looking for a baritone, not exactly in the high price range, as I'm switching from tuba and
and I am not quite sure whether I will stay with it.
After a long search, with many suppliers, my choice fell on the Lechgold BH-19/4L baritone.
The baritone is an import from the Far East, made according to the Czech model.
The joints on the push rods have been converted to German minibals by Musikhaus Kirstein. The instrument is checked and adjusted. A test certificate is included with the instrument. There is also a really good, light case with backpack carrying set. (It is not a huge cold foam molded case as is the case with other imports).

In the store itself, I was able to test the instrument as much as was possible with my "tuba approach".
The salesmen are really very nice and helpful. An instrument maker explained all the details of the baritone to me.
What I noticed immediately was that the baritone is very well tuned. Soldered joints are cleanly processed, the cables are mounted parallel,
nothing jams, no distortion.
The instrument is tight, good compression. The response is, for me, easy and direct. I can't say anything about the varnish quality yet, there are very minor finish flaws, from polishing, but hardly visible. Gimmik; laser engraved valve covers and a discreet lettering "LECHGOLD" on the bell.
The included mouthpiece is not good to play. The instrument is also offered as a set with a Klier JK mouthpiece and some accessories.
The machine goes a little heavy, that gives itself perhaps yet.

In the meantime I've been playing the instrument for a few weeks and I'm very satisfied, the valves were reworked again by the music store and run without any problems. The sound is just great.

Conclusion (very personal):
For beginners, switchers, "second instrument seekers", recreational musicians with a smaller budget, a good choice.
The baritone tunes very well and makes a high-quality impression.
I would buy the instrument again.
The service from Musik Kirstein is convincing in every respect.
