NickD has a spectacular aura about
Flugel single case

I have been looking for a decent flugel case - a single case! I have a Walt Johnson trumpet single case. I love it! On the Walt Johnson site they show a nice single flugel case, however, I can't see how to actually buy it! It seems every page at the Johnson site has a different address and the phone numbers don't seem to work.

Bam doesn't seem to make one. I couldn't access the Wolfpak site for some reason. Its password protected. That seemed odd, but so it goes. I know Protec makes a nice single case, but it is a little bulky. My Johnson trumpet single case is small and I think I could toss out my car window at 60 mph and not dent my trumpet. That's why I'm interested in his case. If I can't buy one, though, well, I'm out of luck there.

Torpedo doesn't seem to make a flugel case either.

Ideas, folks??? I looked at the sponsor’s links and didn't see what I was looking for. Maybe I just missed something.

Thanks in advance!!

Nick

Wiseman cases...

I got some contacts from over on TPIN for Wiseman cases. They don't have a flugel single, but they have a triple case that doesn't look much larger than a Bach trumpet case! Do any of you have any experience with that?

Thanks!

Nick

The Wiseman trumpet flugel case is the best made case in the world, totally safe for your horns, and has a lifetime warranty for the buyer!

Yes they are expensive but IMO worth every penny. When I get my R Flugel in I'm placing an order for a case.

Best,

I also want to recommend the Mike Vax Trumpet/flugel case by ProTec. It's a great case for the money and mine has held up very well. I think I've owned it for a least 15 months and it's in wonderful shape!
