Re: FS Eb King bell front 3 piston tuba
Is the fitted case one of those (original?) wooden cases?
I remember Mr. Stofer listing a fixed bell 1241 with such a case some 4 or 5 years ago. Pretty sure it was good buy without the case, but a case like that is really cool, and ever so slightly less bulky than most plastic cases (which actually means a lot packing-wise if you're trying to fill a car with things, and also means keeping a pristine instrument pristine, which i guess is the point)

Re: FS Eb King bell front 3 piston tuba
Thanks for clearing that up.
Still, i think this is the first time i've seen a gig bag for a recording bell...

I have the BBb version of this. These are great horns with a lovely sound.
