Does anyone know of a modern case that could be used for a 1957 Conn 28A Connstellation?

Thanks,

Dave Brewer

If that's the horn I think it is, a former bandmate bought a Protec 301 and it fit fine.

Thanks, Tom. In doing some more digging around through TH posts, Protec does seem to be the consensus for other Connstellation owners.

Torpedo Bags work well, if you're looking for other options. They're on sale right now at Torpedobags.com, 15% off with code word either Hansel or Gretel.

I also have an Anvil single trumpet case that fits the Connstellation wide wrap if you're looking for an even more robust option. (I'm going to list it in the Marketplace soon.)

I have the Protec Propac trumpet model, and it hold my horns nicely! The 48 is thinner and longer than the B47 and they both fit great. I also use it to transport my New Proportion and it has a good fit for a shepards crook cornet in a trumpet case. The only thing I dislike is that it is a slot style but it'll hold 1/2 dozen mutes and an in bell stand which I do not carry in my bell
