Recommendations sought: hard case for a HS Miraphone186 BBb

Post by bberlien »

I'm posting for a friend whose high school band program needs a new hard case for their Miraphone 186 BBb.

From his email to me: "This instrument gets transported on buses and moving on a variety of surfaces fairly often, so I need something hearty."

Any suggestions? I'm especially seeking the advice of Band Directors out there who have replaced cases for 186 BBb tubas or similar instruments recently.

Thanks

It was made specifically for the Miraphone 186 and Yamaha YBB-641

Hi Tubenetters,

I would also recommend the MTS 1209V made in Elkhart, IN. Should be able to get one through their local dealer or other shops.

I have an MTS case and it works fine. It is well built and durable.
