Questions & Answers

Is there enough room for a 25" long Buescher c melody in this case?

To make the bottom bow fit snugly, you'll need a couple inches of padding.

Is it possible to use a Yamaha YTS 62 in this case?

I suppose it fits because I have a Selmer Paris saxophone, which is ideal.

Is it possible to accommodate 8 people? Back pocket with 5" x 11" musc sheets?

Yep!

Is it possible to store a music folder or a collection of music books in that case?

Sorry, the outside pocket will fit a flute case, but the dimensions for full size sheets are incorrect. Band marching folders are fine, and the standard MX 305 rectangular case will fit some sheet music and a book on the outside.

Selected User Reviews For New Improved Fit! Protec MX305CT Max Tenor Saxophone Case with Backpack Straps, Black

Who in their right mind would think this was a good idea? Although it has a good fit, is lightweight, well-made, and has a large accessory pouch on the top side, it is not without flaws

3/5

The backpack straps. br>br> Who thought this was a good idea in the first place? I get it. It's very convenient to be able to wear your horn as a backpack, especially if you have a lot of walking to do or if you live somewhere where public transportation is available. But seriously, it ruins the rest of the ride when you can't open the case and have it sit flat on the floor with your instrument inside because the straps make the bottom of the case uneven. The case rocks back when you open the top. This could result in your horn being thrown out, depending on where you set the case down to open it. After that, it's all downhill. br>br>I'm going to return this case because the lack of stability is a deal-breaker for me. For me, it was a deal breaker. However, I am not abandoning Pro Tec cases. This is our sixth, and my wife and I have always found them to be excellent value.

Nice bag

5/5

I recently purchased a Yamaha 52, which is a perfect fit in this case. On my back, I'm quite at ease.

For the Selmer MK6/SBA, this is an excellent case

5/5

This is a fantastic situation. I used it for an overnight gig, and the pocket on the side was large enough to hold an extra t-shirt. Shirt, socks, and toiletries are all included! The zipper is a lot smoother than the previous version. The strap is well-made, and the hidden backpack straps are a nice touch. At first, the horn is a little too tight, but it will loosen up after a while. after the first use Selmer SBA/Mk6 size; Keilwerth will not fit. Try SKB 450 for Keilwerth, which is also very good.

Great Deal on the Protec Max Tenor Case! This is a lovely case

5/5

The top of the horn had a slight taper and fit snugly. The padding is more than adequate, and it compares favorably to the old wood frame gig case from which I upgraded. br>The side pouches are spacious, and the backpack straps are dependable. Although I prefer a handle or sling strap, this works just fine. br>Excellent purchase - Case that is highly suggested.

This is an excellent argument for the tenor saxophone! My daughter's original tenor sax case's lock/buckle broke, so I purchased this

5/5

This is an excellent case, and the backpack straps are extremely useful. She adores the fact that she can carry it in this manner - This is a case that I would strongly recommend.

It can hold up to 6 people

5/5

Bells with a diameter of 5 or 7 inches are available. The case is ideal for large bell saxophones from the past. It's sturdy and has a lot of storage space.
