Can you fit 21" long narrow-wrap horns?

Oh look, another knock-off of an already reputable case! |

Or maybe a highly reputable trumpet maker made a case with their own name on it to sell to their clients. No reason to call it a knock-off when it is a proven design. Is a Yamaha Xeno a "knock-off" of a Strad? I highly doubt anybody cares if it looks like another. If the shoe fits, wear it. _________________ -Cody

The dimensions, dividers, and layout are very close to the Bonna quad, except that Stomvi said it won't hold a flugel. _________________ Joe Vandiver |

Thanks. I was just looking at some Torpedo 2.5 cases. I'm sure the Bonna quads are expensive too. Maybe $425 isn't as high a price as I originally thought for this Stomvi case. I'm getting by with my Protec Flugel/trpt, Protec triple and a bunch of Bach and Yamaha double cases. Cool cases are a nice luxury though... |

I'm not just being grumpy. Either Stomvi has duped the design, or they are buying and rebranding the cases from this Spanish company:
Musical-Bags
The cases made by Musical Bags are really fantastic though! I think they beat any of the quad cases we see in the states. Not too pricey, either, about $350. They make a whole line, single through quad, with many varieties and colors. I know a few folks from that part of the land who use and love theirs.

Looks very nice! It's much better laid out than the MB TRIPLE which everyone is saying this is a rip off of. The MB quad requires stacking of horns which is just not safe to me. If I hadn't JUST bought a Brass Bag, I would have ordered this.
PS the MB triple with thinner dividers can hold 4 horns like this one. But this just seems like a fantastic design.

The flugel/picc in the last picture appear to be stacked. |

You mean "Way to go Musical-Bags!" who've been building these cases for 10+ years!
No one contests that Marcus Bonna and Basili make nearly the same case, and we know why. Torpedo Bags have taken the idea and added their very unique twist. Protec does their thing in (mediocre) middle, and with their own flavor.
What irks me is when another company says something is "theirs" when in fact they've either copied some elses', or are rebranding. |

That case costs more than I paid for a lot of the horns I own. I guess that makes me a cheapskate whichever way you look at it. _________________ "Brass bands are all very well in their place - outdoors and several miles away ." - Sir Thomas Beecham |
