Anybody know where to get those leather rotor covers/wraps?

Or something to covers valves with? Valves on the 50b30 I play kinda cut into the side of my neck/face and wondering if theres a solution.

I don't know the answer to that. But given the width of a Bach slide, I think maybe you just need to rotate the horn a little, taking it away from your neck. Arm & shoulder strength exercises and grip aids might be the solution.

Maybe I spoke too soon. My 42 rests comfortably against my neck, not held away from it.

Unless something has dramatically changed, expect a fairly lengthy waiting process. I think I was waiting on delivery for around 9 months last year for leather guards on a stock model
