Fremont or Fullerton California ??
Most trumpet cases fit most trumpets. The Ambassador is a pretty standard wrap and fits most cases. All I have tried, anyway. The Olds Super trumpet leadpipe puts the mouthpiece receiver a bit further out than most, and might cause a problem in a case that was tight, as would one of the Conn "trumpet wrapped" cornets. Also, if a case has a case bed that holds the valve cluster in a fixed position, the Olds Recording and Super Recording or other "balanced model" trumpets might not fit. Most aftermarket cases give some leeway for most horns. _________________ huntman10

Consider contacting the case manufacturer, they may have had that question for your particular instrument before and might be able to answer it.
When I got a Protec CT case for my Olds Recording, I had the same concerns as you did. I sent a mail to my tech (where I also ordered the case) and he mentioned he had a similar instrument in the shop and tried to see if it fit (and it did).
In your case, the Olds Ambassador isn't that oddly shaped so I agree with huntman10 that it'll probably fit most if not all trumpet cases. |
