Detail 01
Contoured shape
Follows the horn instead of boxing it. Smaller footprint and less dead space than a rectangular case, so it carries closer to the body.

Independent shopping perspective
Contoured hard-shell case for tenor trombone, straight or F-attachment, at $279.99. For players who gig, commute or check the horn regularly.

What matters in use
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 01
Follows the horn instead of boxing it. Smaller footprint and less dead space than a rectangular case, so it carries closer to the body.
Detail 02
One case takes both, so the extra tubing of an F-attachment horn has room. No separate model needed if you upgrade later.
Detail 03
Protec's molded shell tier, above their gig bags. Rigid enough for checked baggage and stacked storage, not a padded fabric bag.
Detail 04
Built around a tenor bell and slide. Bass trombone, alto and valve horns are different dimensions and will not seat properly.
Detail 05
Slide and bell section stow separately, as trombones always travel. Check your bell diameter against the case before ordering.
Final check
Product questions
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
No. This is sized for tenor trombone, straight or with F-attachment. A bass trombone has a larger bell and heavier slide that will not seat correctly.
It is a rigid molded case rather than a soft bag, which is what you want for checked baggage. Airline handling is still rough, so pack the horn snugly.
Yes. The case accommodates both straight tenor and F-attachment tenor trombones, so the extra valve tubing has room.
Storage layout is not something we can detail for this listing. Check the interior when it arrives to see what fits alongside the horn.
