I saw the Pro-Tec, and I also found the MB2 that someone posted. The trouble is to get my horn converted to a detachable bell would be an additional $500-600 (or more incl. shipping) and that money could be used to get not only a good case but another mute and maybe even some more music.
Does anyone have a used (but good condition) MB2 that they're willing to sell? -William In a message dated 6/3/2009 2:34:35 P.M.

It's not the perfect solution because a fixed-bell horn is an awkward thing to sling over one shoulder and carry, but it does work and I use it when I need to. NB: I got this case from a fellow list member - our list is great for things like that, and I paid less than half what I would have for a new ProTec case. Mine serves my needs beautifully and I have no need for anything better. I have not seen a truly backpack-style fixed bell case, meaning that it has two shoulder straps intended to be worn at the same time. I imagine one is out there but it probably costs more than my "vintage" ebay horn did. :) **************We found the real ‘Hotel California’ and the ‘Seinfeld’ diner. What will you find?
