Hi all, I'm in need of recommendations for a gig bag. I know Cronkhite makes the best bags out there, but it's out of my price range sadly. or any anyone has a bag for sale that would fit I'm open to that as well.

Thanks in advance!

Have you checked with Wessex for a gig bag? They sell their own... $320-$375 from what I can see on their site.

They are sold out of basically everything right now or I would. I appreciate that though!

I'm going to be visiting one of the local Wessex shops this weekend... maybe they'll have some idea on when stuff will come in. I recently had really good luck getting a Protec Platinum bag... those at least seem to be obtainable right now. I don't know which model would fit that horn though. Probably the larger one...

I took a gamble and got a protec. The dimensions are close, I hope it works.

I got an email this morning from Wessex that some of their gig bags are back in stock and can be ordered. I was trying to locate one for an Eb tuba that's a bit on the smaller size... I ended up ordering a Gard bag from WWBW (back ordered, March ETA)... but Wessex also made one.

It looks like the one for the Symphony is in stock right now. Might be your best bet?
