Gig bag for front-valve euph

[AHynds]

Hello, all!

I am looking to get a gig bag for my front valve euphonium (the King 2268 Artist Euph), and I'm curious to see what other people are using. I'm not knowledgeable enough in the area of gig bags to know if standard euph bags would work, and since it is a relatively tall horn, I am further in the dark. Any suggestions out there would be great! I would like to keep cost reasonable, but if I have to spend a little more for something really good, so be it.

Protec makes a gig bag for "bell forward" euphoniums. See link below (best price found):

Ah, some clarification--this is a bell up instrument. Although the bell-up version of that Protec bag looks like a solid contender!

To AHynds,

Oops, read front valve euph and thought bell front. Sorry, my mistake.

I would get an altieri in a custom dimension

I do like my Altieri tuba bags, so I think I'll go that route!

Aaron, how do you like that horn? I kinda want a front bell version to play jazz on.
