Impressed with Wessex Bag

I finally got my gig bag from Wessex in the mail today and I have to say I'm awfully impressed at the quality of this bag. My tuba fit very snugly, the padding is thick and full, the zippers on the main compartment and pouches are of good quality, and the backpack option is just awesome! I was able to fit my music binder in one pocket and valve oil, slide grease, and the case that holds my three mouthpieces in the other without it bulging. Thanks Wessex for such a great bag at a seriously superb price!

Cheers,
Jared

I got the ref.700 bag. It fit my tuba perfect. Any tighter and I might not have been able to fit it!

Cheers,

Hey YORK-aholic, I have plenty of room in the valve section. If yours is a bit higher, you won't have any issues.

Cheers,
Jared

I agree it is a nice bag. Just a quick clarification about the music pouch. My music is in an 8.5x11" 3-hole binder. The binder will just fit in the pouch but the zippers won't close over it. So far, that has not been a problem.
