I'll take the next Cronkhite bag that becomes available after that. Or if one comes up that Aiden does not want, I would like to chat with the seller. PM me.

I am also interested in one of those Messina Covers bags that came with the 826 tubas from Dillon back in the day, though I am less interested in these.

@the elephant @Aiden Pisterov

Lee Stofer has a cordura and a leather bag that should fit 836 sized tubas. I would encourage you to give him a call. I just posted photos of some of the bags available on his business Facebook page.

I'm looking for the exact model and not simply a close fit. I have a leather 836 bag as well as a leather 2165 bag, and the 836-sized horn fits poorly in the larger bag. Does he have the specific model made from the specific template for the 836? I am looking to replace the super-nice leather 836 bag with the same model in Cordura without sending too much. (I can always buy a new one, but I don't want that right now. I need a cheaper "trial" bag to try before I sell the beautiful leather one.)

Thanks!

@the elephant The one that lists the 836 for it is leather. The cordura bag is a Gronitz PCK bag. We would be happy to take measurements of the bags and discuss it with you.

Have gig bags gone paperless?
I looked all over their website, and couldn't fit one that fits.

Is the person at the very top of this thread really needing a bag for their tuba, or were they just trolling to see how much unrelated junk we would post in this thread?

BUMP for @Aiden Pisterov !!!

I quit using bags, and I went to hard cases. Both of them have drawbacks; only one has drawstrings. I think I'm going electronic, but I haven't decided on the iBag or the iCase. I believe both of them offer choices in backlighting.

REBUMP !!!
