Single case for the whole thing? Or set of cases for body and removable bell?
(apologies for being more curious than useful at this point. Latter is probably easier to come by, and maybe less model -specific?)

If you can find a used set it’ll probably be cheaper, but Taylor Music will sell you a new set. They made a set for my Martin and they’re good.

I agree, guys. This is the way to go.

I have a couple of VERY large wood/new-condition/old stock 6/4 one-piece cases.
IF (??) a 20/24J ends up here, I'll check and see if the bell will lay down in the top of the case sideways - above the detached body.

Is your Martin a Mammouth or a Medium? I’d like to find a set for a front action, bell front, medium BBb…
Mammoth. They might be able to add enough interior padding to work for a Medium, but it would likely be overkill.

I don’t know which BBb 4 FA Valved Conn model I am getting, the seller only had 2 photos and just said it was a Conn serial number 218348. According to the different Conn websites that serial number is between 1924 and 1928? I will get the dimensions when it arrived on 9/12. I am looking for used, hopefully one piece, but I will take two piece for the right price. I spent $1750 on the tuba, would like to keep the case/cases below $700 if at all possible.

Thank you all for the help. I got a Couesnon 2717 4/4 BBb 3 valve tuba that meets all my needs for now. I have a gig bag that I lined with 1-1/2” foam, so I will not be needing a hard case. Thanks again.
