Re: 2 Questions here!

I am assuming that you want to carry everything in one bag without the "add-ons" like a mute bag, etc. Why don't you look at the Reunion Blues double and its clones (Gard and Guardian). Being that it is a bag type and not hard structured you can get all sorts of things in the space where the second trumpet is supposed to go. I bought one of the Guardians a couple of years ago on eBay and it did very well. I think I paid $40 for it. When I would go to NABBA I would shove five mutes, my music folder, my cornet, oil, tuner, spare glasses (!), etc, and still had plenty of room. I upgraded a month or so ago and sold that one to a student here. He loves it for carrying his cornet, trumpet and about ten tons of music.

Those three choices are about the same style and give you a wide range of prices, too.

Good luck,

Bill
