@Dale-Proctor The Bach Mercedes is a really good instrument, and those old Mercedes models (from the 1970s and earlier) play just as well as the "professional model" Bach Stradivarius models do (in my opinion, at least.) The same is true with the vintage so-called "student model" trumpets made by American companies (and made in America) in the 1970s and earlier. (The time frame varies from company to company, depending on exactly when each instrument manufacturing company began to change their "student models" and/or when each particular instrument company's quality started to deteriorate. Looks like you found a great solution for your 3rd slide ring dilemma though, so that's great!
