Hey!

Does anyone have any experience dealing with turnaround time with Walt Johnson? How long?

I gotta get one of these... The 70lb (empty!) anvil crate I use is killing me...

OR... does anyone know of any great FLIGHT READY alternatives to the Johnson??

Thanks

Forgot to mention -- this is for Maximus, the 'vintage' Mirafone 186 CC --

Johnson Cases is a small operation; time to delivery depends on the business climate and the season. A month is not an unreasonable expectation, but be warned it can take longer.

But WJ cases aren't light either--they've got a fiberglass shell and that's what gives the protection.

That horn would take a medium sized tuba case from Walt Johnson. I That size can fit in the back seat of most automobiles. Try doing that with most anvil cases.

Walt Johnson Cases are the defacto standard for hard cases IMO.

Thanks guys...

The only thing is that everywhere I'd go, I'd be pulling my Johnson.



(I didn't make that up)


Seriously, if anyone else has any other flight case advice, please post it!!

Thanks!!
