Torpedo Bag!!!

trumpet blower88 · 06-23-2006, 11:54 PM

For my birthay (back in April) my parets got me a torpedo bag. Unfortunatly every place on the internet we could find was out of stock and there was a long wait to get one. But yesterday it finaly came in, and wow! This is the most amazing case EVER! I'm so excited about it! I'm tempted to go out and drive my car over it like they advertise on their website, but I'm not sure if its worth another wait if it dosn't work.

Haha, I can't wait till my next rehersal to show it off!

I got my Torpedo Bag a month ago. They were out of them but called me the next day saying two had unexpectedly arrived. I agree, it is a fantastic case. I won't use mine as a back pack, so I took off one of the straps and either use the handle strap or sling it over my shoulder.

It is a case worthy of consideration.

Will the bags fit non-standard size trumpets, i.e. my harrelson?

The only (current) trumpet on the Harrelson website that looks like it wouldn't fit in a Torpedo Bag is the Satellite -- I think the exterior bell bracing would get in the way.

As long as your Harrelson measures no more than 19.75" "stem-to-stern" not only will it fit, but you can pack the "inside the lid" accessory pouch full too. Remove the accesory pouch (velcro) and you can add another 1.75" to the length of the horn. Here's mine with a "full load": I have the older version with the removable backpack straps... it's now approaching 3 years old and used daily with not a mark nor broken zipper on it.

Tootsall, where do you keep your guns with all that misc. trumpet stuff in there??

Thanks for the pic. I may have to pick up one of those to protect my investment.
