MTS Products1204V F Tuba Case Black
1/4
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A black MTS Products case cut specifically for F tuba. For F tuba owners who need a properly sized case rather than a large-frame one.
Strong match
Who this is for
- F tuba players needing a case matched to the horn's smaller body
- Doubling players who move an F tuba between orchestra and rehearsal
- Protecting an F tuba in storage between concert seasons
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- BBb or CC tubas — the case is cut smaller
- Players who want one case to cover several different horns
- Budget shoppers looking for basic cover protection
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Hard case, not a gig bag
Rigid protection for transport and storage, at the cost of extra weight compared with a padded bag.
Detail 03
Black finish
Practical for stage and van use — scuffs and handling marks show far less than on light colors.
Detail 04
$809.99
Below the large-frame 1708V, reflecting the smaller shell rather than any drop in protection level.
Detail 05
MTS Products 1204V model
Model-specific fit. Check your F tuba's bell and body dimensions against the 1204V rather than assuming all F tubas match.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Measure your F tuba's bell diameter and height before ordering
- 02No instrument, mouthpiece, or stand included
- 03If you also own a BBb or CC tuba, this case will not fit it
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does this fit any F tuba?
F tubas vary between makers. Measure your bell diameter, overall height, and valve section depth and compare against the 1204V before ordering.
02What is the difference from the 1708V?
The 1708V is the large-frame case for bigger tubas. The 1204V is cut for the smaller F tuba body, and costs $150 less.
03Can I check this on a flight?
It is a hard case rather than a bag, but airline handling of tubas is unpredictable. Confirm oversize baggage rules with your carrier first.
04Is an instrument included?
No. This is the case only. No tuba, mouthpiece, or accessories come with it.
