Bach Model 42B Stradivarius Prof. Tenor Trombone with F Pedal, Playable Conditio

Description

Vincent Bach Model 42B Stradivarius Professional Tenor Trombone with F attachment
This trombone is in very good playable condition as is. Slide action is clean and smooth with no rubbing or hitches. There are no discernable dents in the slide. The spit valve spring and stopper are in good condition. Slide lock works. Main tuning slide and the F attachment tuning slide move easily. Rotary valve moves easily but does needs lubrication. It is not slow but can tell it is dry. Spring and trigger are in good condition and the bottom rotary cap is finger tight and easily removable. This Instrument was made around the 1976 timeframe based on it's serial number. The current condition of the lacquer in many areas is showing it's age. There are also extensive lacquer rub offs in the areas where the trombone is held and manipulated.
The only physical defect in this trombone was an impact/crush to the bell. The bell has had the brass worked to remove most of the defect. The lacquer has been rubbed off from the creased areas on the inside and outside portion of the bell from the rollers. You are still able to feel some slight ripples from the metal work that are still present.
The case is in good condition. There are some accessories in the case (bottle, 2 brushes, grease, oil and music lyre) and a Bach 6 1/2 AL mouthpiece. There is one snap missing that holds the cleaning rod. All 3 latches on the case work. No keys are included. There is normal wear to the outside of the case and what appears to be some paint splatter.

Please inquire with any additional questions or if you would like additional photos. eBay only allows 12 photos per listing, so I tried to take the common angles and specific issues.
