(Professional model hand slides have components built together to fit exactly for each individual slide. Hand slide components are built separately to spec, then inserted together and placed in the case for shipping. Bells are usually machine spun from a hydro-formed piece of tubing rather than a sheet of brass.
With student models, ease of playing and durability are the prime directives. Many student instruments are imported form China and other countries, but you can still find high quality models manufactured in the USA at very fair pricing. The mouthpipe, a tapered tube inside the horn into which the mouthpiece inserts, may be a bit tighter on a student model to offer an easier response with lower volumes of air. Mouthpieces are normally the smallest size, a 12C, which helps the new player support the tone.

The King 606 is identical, but the outside hand slide tubas are all nickel, as it the bracing and tuning slide sleeves. It has a slightly warmer sound and feels a bit more open.

My (Steve's) first trombone was a King 605 (like 606) in middle school, and I kept it through college for marching gigs and it was fine.

Sometimes the small different in price between an intermediate and professional model leads people to say, "I just want to buy it once. Lots of younger players aspire to a professional model trombone, so we often see them step up to a professional trombone after previously owning only a student model. But the price is about two thirds that of the 36, so it makes a great setup for the developing player.We only sell a few intermediate models here.
