Efficient design
David Y. 29.05.2013
Purchased for an old and heavy 3 valve silver plated Bb La Fleur the case is very well designed to hold the bell and body in the minimum space but with good protection. Materials and construction very good. Just as well as I paid more for the case than the instrument. Makes transport easy and safe.

Great Bag
Anonymous 24.01.2017
Lots of great things about the bag, easy and quick to pack the sousaphone away. Pretty well padded yet easy to carry. Good sized pocket for stuff with useful zipped bits. Good handle placement for portability.

Slightly less good stuff - pocket is kind of "upside down" in relation to its shape thus, stuff falls out if left unfastened.
Straps are very long and low on the case, I rectified this easily by shortening them with cable ties though.

Decent but flawed
Jack M. 09.06.2019
This case was okay, but not great. The straps on the back are too long, which makes it difficult to wear comfortably.

I've had mine for little over 2 years and it has fallen apart. I gig regularly, but I still would have hoped it would last a bit longer.

In short, not great, not terrible.

bonne protection mais mauvaise ergonomie
Lucien L. 08.12.2011
La housse est solide et protège bien l'instrument avec une bonne épaisseur de mousse. Par contre, plusieurs points sont très mal conçus :

- la housse est grande et assez lâche, il n'y a pas de sangles pour maintenir l'instrument, de sorte que l'instrument bouge à l'intérieur et s'éloigne systématiquement du dos et le rend encore plus pénible à porter. De plus les sangles de portages sur épaule sont trop éloignée l'un de l'autre (à moins d'être Alain Bernard).
J'ai beaucoup bricolé pour arriver à un portage correct (fixation d'un dos de sac à dos, rajout de sangles de maintient à l'intérieur de la housse).

- la partie renforcée censé protéger lorsqu'on pose l'instrument au sol est sur le côté, à l'endroit où on ne pose jamais l'instrument : on risque d'abimer et l'instrument et la fermeture éclair à chaque fois qu'on le pose.

- la pochette à partition à son ouverture dirigée vers le bas : une fermeture mal fermée vous fera perdre tout ce qu'il y a dedans.

Mon ancienne housse était nettement moins chère et nettement moins protectrice mais elle collait bien l'instrument au dos et permettait un portage correct. Celle-ci protège mieux et ira très bien pour poser l'instrument dans un coffre de voiture, par contre, bon courage pour les transports en commun...
