Case for a Bach 182 flugel

Does anybody have recommendations for a case that will fit for the (no longer in production) Bach 182 flugel?

I found it is a little bit longer and less "taller" than a common wrapped flugel. Do you think it fits in a Protec cornet case? Or only in the Protec flugel case (if so)? Any other brands?

Any input is appreciated!

I have the Protec flugelhorn case. It easily fits my Getzen 4-valve Eterna, with it's larger 6.5 inch bell. There may be better choices. But I suspect it will fit your 182 fugelhorn.

If you have specific dimensions, I'd be happy to measure my case for you.

I have a Reunion Blues Continental flugel case, my Manchester Brass flugel, which is quite large (similar to Kanstul), fits well.

Hi folks,
thanks for the inputs!
I ended up buying a ProTec flugelhorn case; the flugel is pretty safe in it.
