gig bag for a Piggy?

[ken k]

Hello fellow tube netters,
Any of you piggy players out there, I was curious what gig bag you have? There do not seem to be any regular bags out there that would fit. My 3/4 bag I use for my mini Yamaha is too tight. Perhaps a top loader?

There's got to be a Cronkhite bag for a pig, call HornGuys in La Crescenta, California 818.248.7550

You are correct, DP. I just looked at the HornGuys site, and it indicates Cronkite makes a bag for the Piggy.

You could also have Altieri make a bag for you. All of their bags are made to your horns measurements, so you don't have to worry about finding a bag model that will work.

You might try the Wessex bags. I have had great service from them and their bag is well-made. They will recommend which bag will fit your horn best. http://www.wessex-tubas.com/" target="_blank

They seem to have discontinued them, but you could call Taylor Music, and see if they still have one bag left that was made to fit a King 1135 (15" bell - about the same height as a Cerveny "Piggy").

i think that is the same bag I bought from them. I bought their 3/4 tuba bag to use with my yamaha 103. It is a bit loose on my Yamaha, but it is very tight on the piggy, and I am not crazy about having the bag wrap against the valves and linkage so tight.
