This Bach 36 handslide, serial number 30483, dates from the mid-to-late 1970s and was built during an era when Bach instruments were still hand-crafted with exceptional consistency. Designed as the standard weight .525 bore slide, it is fully compatible with both Bach 36 and 36B bell sections, past or present.
The slide underwent a complete shop service, including a chemical bath and inspection. All original parts and lacquer were intact. There were no dents or structural issues, though a smooth wear spot was noted on one inner tube. Despite this cosmetic wear, the slide still played well and offered reliable action—making it a practical solution for a player in need of a replacement or backup slide at an affordable price point.
This Bach 36 handslide is now part of our Archive of Sold Instruments, preserved here as a reference for musicians and collectors researching vintage Bach components.
