I remember reading this:

viewtopic.php?p=59051&highlight=#59051

So do you have any case for it?

yes i have a tuxedo gig bag but it is falling apart after a tough four years and alot of abuse. it is good but i need one with more pockets and room for my folders of music.

but i do have one

Check out http://hornguys.com/casesinstock.htm

About half way down the page under the "Tuba" heading it lists:

Hirsbrunner HB2 black cordura, old style, used $100

Of course you should call to confirm this, but I'd guess that it's one of the original Reunion Blues bags.

As for it being a bag for an HB-2, check out the "list of cases and horns that fit them" table here: http://hornguys.com/tubacases.htm

At $100, I'd jump on it if I were you.

I have an Altieri gig bag, that has extra heavy foam padding (special order). It was designed for an HB-2, which apparently is a similar size.

The inner lining has a tear in it, but otherwise it is in good shape. I am asking $75 + shipping.

Feel free to PM me, if you are interested.

I have used one of Donna Altieri's bags for the last 15 years. It comes with back-pack straps and pockets.

I have to agree with Randy Harrison. I have used an Altieri gig bag for some time and am happy with it.

As I look over what is available I see a lot of good choices.

best of luck,
Mark
