I ordered the SKB Contoured Tenor Sax case to replace an older, somewhat worn Cannonball case. I need road worthy case and have past positive experience with SKB (one of their cases protected my alto sax from a fall off a motorcycle) and decided to give their new model 450 tenor case a try. All around it's a solid road worthy case. The latches and handle have been upgraded and are sturdier and have a more "industrial strength" feel than those on the older model. The interior of the case offers space for the sax neck and another compartment that can hold my mouthpiece and a box of reeds. It also features an an accessory pocket on the outside of the lid. This is the least impressive feature of the case as the pocket separated from the case almost immediately after unpacking it. A bit of glue will put it right but it's a bit on the chincy side for a company like SKB. Overall it's a good solid sax case. The real test will come on a couple of upcoming cross country flights where it will have to endure life in the cargo hold and the delicate hands of the baggage handlers. I have high hopes for the case. Not so much for the handlers."..."  Read more

My original wooden Getzen Trumpet case, was destroyed by thieves who broke into my house. I didn't want to pay the $277 to replace just the case. After looking at several different aftermarket trumpet cases, I finally found the Protec Max to be a perfect replacement case. The Protec trumpet case was large enough to hold a trumpet mute, two mouth pieces and had a large exterior zipper pouch to hold music or cleaning cloths. It also, had a small interior door to hold valve oil. Although I miss the original wooden Getzen trumpet case, I did remove the brass Getzen emblem and installed it on the Protec case which now looks like it came from Getzen! The Protec "Max" trumpet case is a great replacement trumpet case."..."  Read more

My 10 yr old granddaughter started in band this year and she is using my old alto. The original alto case died years ago and I had been using an old C-melody sax case that I had. It too was on its last legs. After looking around for a replacement I found the Pro Tec at a local music store and really liked the quality construction of the case but what I liked even better was finding it at Wayfair at a cost that was 50 less than the music store. Nice price Wayfair. I have a tenor thats in need of a new case too. Ill be back....."..."  Read more

I needed a case for my Warwick Bass. I have always used hard shell cases and was reluctant to purchase a soft case. The Contego Bass case by Protec is extremely well built with large pockets,smooth working zippers, balance and just great construction. I feel very comfortable transporting my instrument in this case. I am buying another for my Music Man Bass. If you are a working musician and are transporting your instrument from gig to gig you will find that there are other and more expensive Gig Bags available. You will not be disappointed by this product. For the money the value you receive far exceeds the costs involved. Just Buy One or Two. Great product. You will not be disapponted."..."  Read more
