      Re: Flugel Thread

      I would like to get a case for my Flugel and 1 or 2 other horns. 1 would be a piccolo. My flugelhorn is a Courtois and is a little taller than most. I believe it is 12 inches tall. Most of the cases I've looked at have a smaller inner dimension. I've seen Jen's video on the Gard title and wonder if that might work. Marcus Bona makes a 2 trumpet and flugelhorn case as well as a quad case that say can be used as a flugelhorn case but I don't see any dimensions on the web site.

        You could try a Torpedo Coyote with the snarl lid - works for my Adams F2 which is quite large. If you contact them they can tell you if it will fit.

        Daily players: Adams A1, A4LT, F2 flugel , CN1 cornet.

          I have this one and it works great!

            I use a Reunion Blues leather double bag. They do not appear to make it anymore but here is an almost identical item from Gard:

            I have been using mine for 20 years and it still is great.

              FWIW, the OP is looking for a case, not a gig bag, unless there's a semantic misunderstanding.

                I also have an Adams F2, a tall horn as was mentioned. It fits in my Cronkite triple trumpet case with one other horn, but it’s a bit tight. I wouldn’t travel with it, but it’s ok in my truck on the way to and from rehearsal.

                I have a ProTec Flugelhorn/Trumpet case works very well with the Adams and either my Miyashiro or Committee and the risk of damage is a lot lower. It’s just not quite as easy to carry.
