New Cronkhite/torpedo
I ordered a two tone leather bag for my yfb 621. This is my fourth leather and fifth overall Cronkhite bag. I can’t tell any difference between this and the California made ones. Perfect in every way.

That’s good to hear, but no surprise. I love my torpedo trumpet case.

Re: New Cronkhite/torpedo
I'm up to four myself, three Californias and one post-acquisition, but only one is leather (which I bought used- thanks, Tubaport). Sure they're more expensive, but no other bag I've tried works as well for me.MikeMason wrote:I ordered a two tone leather bag for my yfb 621.

You're welcome, Frank! They really are great bags. Glad that one is working out well for you!
