Selected User Reviews For Protec PL239 Platinum Series Tenor Trombone Gig Bag
It's a perfect fit for my king 4b. snug. There is enough room at the top to fit my straight or plunger mutes, but not enough. br>A mouthpiece is a piece of equipment that is used to speak into a microphone. I think a couple of places to slide mouthpiece brushes would be nice in the accessory pouch. into, for example I suppose the music folder holder's pouches would suffice. br>The slide divider should be attached to the case's bottom. It should be completely separated from the horn by a cover. br>There is no room for a fold-up music stand in the trombone stand pocket or anywhere else on this bag. It's almost too small for a Hamilton trombone to stand on its own. br>I bought this most expensive "all in one" bag to avoid having to carry multiple bags, but I still have a foldable music stand bag. Separately, there is a mute bag. br>Overall, well-designed, with the exception of a space for the must-have standard items that every trombone player requires in their case. br>Another flaw in the design is that the backpack rig lacks a waist belt stabilizer. If I want it to stay on my back while I ride my bike to practices, I'll have to make one. Where will I take a stand, though? Is it okay if I ride my bike with the speakers turned off?.
I purchased the Protec PL239 to replace a Protec gig bag that had been in my possession for 15 years. This fits my Bach 42B with closed wrap F attachment perfectly, and there appears to be enough room for the open wrap as well. My 12-inch record can fit in the music pocket. The 9-inch iPad Pro, which was not available when I purchased my first Protec bag, is now available. The only thing I wish was different is that I carry two brass mouthpieces, but there is only enough room in the pocket just to the right of the music pocket for one of them. I tried putting the other mouthpiece in, but it just rolled around. I do have a third mouthpiece, but it's a Kelley plastic one that goes into a separate bag that comes with the case, which also holds my slide lubricant, water bottle, valve oil, mouthpiece brush, toothbrush, and toothpaste. )br>br>I immediately noticed a weight loss compared to my 15-year-old self. year-old Protec gig bag, primarily because the old case was made of wood on the inside and the new one isn't. So, if you've been carrying around those old wooden cases, you'll appreciate this bag. br>br>I'm keeping my old bag for when I travel with my instrument because this new one doesn't provide quite the same level of protection, but it appears to keep it safe enough to fit in an airplane's baggage hold.
I was really excited to get this bag for my son because it comes with a built-in sheet music pouch, so I didn't have to carry a separate bag. Seriously, why hasn't this been considered before? One less bag helps a lot when he's carrying a mute bag and sometimes a garment bag as well. I bought it at the end of January 2017 and was initially very pleased with it, having had great success with Pro-X. Previously, I used Tec bags. Only a few weeks ago (around the middle of last week), May 2017) the stitches that connect the nylon shoulder-blade-to-nylon shoulder-blade-to-nylon shoulder- The strap's connection to the case's bottom clip has come undone, rendering the strap useless. It needed to be stitched more times or with a stronger thread. It's difficult to complain for the price, and it should be relatively easy to fix, but I wanted to make those looking for a bag aware that the bag's durability falls short of my expectations. My son is in middle school, and he is generally more cautious with his belongings than most other kids, particularly when it comes to his prized trombone, but he is still a boy in middle school, so.
Our son had already chosen the trombone when he started middle school (6th grade). Unfortunately, he broke his ankle right before the start of school! It was difficult enough to carry a backpack, let alone a large instrument in a hard plastic case. We looked at a few options before deciding on this product, and we are very happy with it! It was costly, but it was a necessary expense for us, and we hope it will serve him well for many years to come. It appears to be well put together. There are a variety of ways to transport the item. He used it as a backpack for a while, but when he realized he didn't need the straps (and it was much more comfortable that way), he zipped them up and now only carries it by hand. We wish the product had more cushioning to support the trombone (it would make us feel better), but it has so far done a good job of protecting the instrument. Even if we could just buy more inserts to provide more support and cushioning around the horn's bell, but we haven't been able to find any. We'll see what we can do about getting some made, I believe.
br>br>Because it's part soft and part hardsided, this bag is more of a hybrid. Inside, a modular divider on one side and wood covered in soft material on the other protect the trombone slide section, while the bell section fits snugly and foam blocks with velcro are included to help you achieve a custom fit. br>br>On the outside, there are plenty of compartments, including one for sheet music/iPad, another for a mouthpiece holder and space for slide lube, spray bottle, and small tools, and a long compartment on the other side that fits a folding trombone stand snugly. br>br>Overall, I'm pleased with this purchase for my Rath R2F trombone so far, and I'll give it a thorough break-in at the gigs next weekend.
My Edwards T-shirt will be too big for the bag. 350 Furthermore, the music pocket is insufficient to hold a large sheet music folder for full-length performances. orchestral parts of various sizes Finally, my K trombone does not fit in the trombone stand pocket. M stands for trombone. Those are the three criteria that are most important to me, but if your needs are different, this bag might be a good fit for you. The bag is light and appears to be well-made. Unfortunately, it does not perform the functions that I require.
For the money, this is a fantastic purchase. I can easily fit my Benge 190F (which customizes inside) as well as my music, stands, cleaning supplies, and even my straight mute in there. AND, unlike the old gig bag, it takes up less space. This is a fantastic purchase.
