Gig bags and Hard cases for sale.

[Chris Olka]

Ok, gotta clean out the "crap"...I mean totally awesome stuff that any aspiring tubist should own to ensure their future success in the business. Hey, it must work...look at me! Here's whats up for sale:

1 Black and Brown Leather Cronkite gig bag for a Miraphone 1281 Petruschka model or similar sized tuba. It's in very good condition and provides about as much protection as is possible for a gig bag. The leather is stiff and and padding is thick and dense. I'd say it qualifies as barely used. There are a few tiny scuffs here and there, but otherwise great shape. These are currently priced at around $750 new. Asking $550 plus whatever shipping will be.

1 Hardwood tuba case for Yamaha 661, Cerveny Piggy, Miraphone 1281 F tuba, or similar sized horn. This case has padding set up for a rotary valve tuba but could easily fit anything in a similar dimension with proper adjustment to the padding in the case. I test fit the Miraphone 1281 and it fits beautifully with the exception of the fat padding block that rests on the rotor valve bridge. This could be removed but I don't want to disfigure the case interior for the buyer. The case is of robust enough construction that it could serve as a flight case if needed. It's in generally great shape with a few small scratches to the fabric covering. The hardware is in excellent shape and the case is equipped with two wheel sockets for detachable roller wheels if desired. Asking $150 plus shipping. Could be spendy depending on shipping method.

1 Yamaha Plastic Hardshell case for YFB822 model or similar. This case is practically new, including key to locking hardware. Roller wheels and "stunning" red, faux-velvetine lining. Got this with a new tuba and never used it. Lived in my attic. Some few minor scuffs from being chased from one place to another in my attic. Could easily be modified for similar sized tuba. Also, I've known quite a few folks that have used these as flight cases...I wouldn't...but I'm one of those weirdos that doesn't like my tubas to be damaged when flying. Asking $150 plus shipping.

1 HIGH MILEAGE Dolly bag for 6/4 sized York tuba or smaller. Black cordura fabric with lots of dust and a broken zipper. Also has the protective plastic inserts. Top loading. I used the poop out of this bag. It never let me down...well, right up until the zipper crapped out. It's got useful life left but only if the zipper is repaired. Asking $50 plus shipping.

2 Wimpy-padded, mini-tuba bags/sleeves with zipper closures. Will fit any Euph or Yamaha 621 sized horn. I'd say these are appropriate for using in addition to a hard case or gig bag for another level of protection to the finish of the horn. Basically a lightly padded "sock" for your horn. $20 each or $35 for both plus shipping.

I'll only accept PayPal for payment and will give preference to local pickups in the Seattle, Washington area. I currently don't have time for tire-kickers or window-shoppers. Please, only serious inquiries.
