Might try Cronkhite or Reunion Blues, though it may be a special-order item.
Or maybe you could find a good used set of hard cases.
Enjoy your 20J!

Re: 20j Gig bag
Cronkhite won't make them for a 2 piece horn, I asked him earlier this year. I got mine, for my Martin, from Altieri. It took a while to get it right, and the bell bag still really doesn't fit the recording bell properly. Send Altieri good dimensions, a good tracing, and good pictures, including a duplicate photo of each part with the dimensions included on it.
The body bag is amazing, the bell not so, but I simply got tired of putzing with it. It helps, at least. The bell bag has less protection than the body. $325
Somewhere on TN there is a link for Messina bags, in Athens OH. They have made bass bags for a while, new to horn bags but willing and able. Looks like a good bag, but they need a tracing and pictures. I think he said $325 also, for a large helicon bag.
