Protec Alto Saxophone PRO PAC Case PB304CTBX

I had to replace the 60 yr old case that came with my 1960s Buescher Saxophone. Not only did my alto fit in the case but the extra pockets for a flute work great to hold my saxophone harness and my small repair kit. I purchased separately the backpack straps which make it easier to carry when I have other items.

Perfecto embalaje, en perfecto estado me llegó

We purchased a Protec case to replace a broken hard shell case for my son’s tenor sax, and decided to buy one for my other son’s alto sax for which we had a worn out soft shell case. These cases beat both of our other cases.

– very smart looking case available in multiple colors. My kids liked choosing their color.
– Exterior is a very sturdy-looking fabric.
– Contoured design gives the instrument adequate protection while minimizing the bulk of the case. Most rectangular cases are bulky.
– Internal storage is sufficient for all of the components of the sax as well as some cleaning supplies. There is an additional zippered storage compartment on the outside of the case which provides more than sufficient additional storage. Very convenient and easy to access.
– there are handles on the top and end of the case, which make it very easy to move around in tight spaces.
– Shoulder strap makes it easy to carry. We bought the additional “backpack straps,” which we thought would make the instrument easier to carry walking to and from school, but the boys don’t use them.
– plastic “feet” on the bottom and end protect the fabric while the case is sitting on the ground, and allow you to stand it on end, which is nice for storage.

I ordered this on 19 December, hoping it would arrive in time for Christmas, even though Amazon said it might not

I had an unprompted email from the seller to check with me if it was a Christmas present, so that he could despatch it in time. I am totally blown away by this level of customer service.

He was concerned that my chosen colour (blue) would arrive too late, so gave me other options to choose from. In the end, he managed to get a blue one, post it the same day and it arrived on 21 December.

The case itself is beautifully made, very practical and worth every penny.

I really could not rate this seller highly enough!

I no longer have to carry my son’s saxophone into his lessons. My 12-year-old son is small and did not like carrying the heavy leather case that came with his professional model saxophone. He carries the music and his oboe; I carried the sax. He LOVES the new case and the blue color. He always wants to carry the sax AND the oboe now. I just carry the check book 😉 He would like to take the case to school, but he has an old beater that he keeps at school and does not have to transport it.

My son’s private lesson teacher is very picky, but he really likes this case. It is structurally very rigid, but has a soft feel on the outside and is still very light weight. I was nervous about getting a soft-side style case for this expensive instrument, but I have no concerns with this one. There is more than enough storage, including zipper pockets on both the bottom side and top sides. We bought an optional backpack strap. It would work great if you had to carry it for quite a distance or ride a bike, but for short trips it is easier to just use the nicely padded sling shoulder strap. The case also has feet that will allow it to stand upright or on its side, keeping the cover off the floor.

This was truly a great find. Good value, protection, look, and feel.

+ l’étui est rigide, tient donc debout ce qui est appréciable dans le bus/ métro et pour le ranger à la
maison.
+ l’anse du haut est très appréciable pour le porter dans les transports et le ranger, c’est un détail qui a
aussi guidé mon choix.
+ L’intérieur est d’un joli bleu, la mousse prend bien la forme de l’instrument qui rentre sans forcer et
assure une bonne protection, avec un bon maintien du bocal et du bec grace au lien velcro.
+ les fermetures eclair sont robustes.
+ 2 poches sur les côtés dont une avec un soufflet qui permet de ranger un portefeuilles., clés voire un
parapluie … si besoin
lA SANGLE A DOS et la housse pluie sont A ACHETER SEPAREMENT.
Globalement, je suis séduite par mon achat, on verra à l’usage mais la première impression est trés bonne. Un peu cher mais fait pour durer je l’espère.
On peut mettre des feuilles A4 mais légèrement pliées pour que ça rentre dans la poche la plus large.
Commandé le le 28/09 livré le 30/09 Génial. Merci
