Detail 01
Wheels
Rolls instead of hangs, which is the difference on long airport or campus walks, but adds bulk and hardware to the shell.

ProtecPRO PAC Alto and Straight Soprano Saxophone Case with Wheels
1/4
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Wheeled hard-shell case for alto sax or straight soprano, for players who move a horn regularly and would rather roll than carry.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Alto players commuting to rehearsals, schools, or gigs on foot
- Doublers needing one case for alto and straight soprano
- Anyone tired of carrying ten pounds on one shoulder
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Curved soprano saxophones, which will not fit the interior
- Players who want the lightest possible case for tight overhead bins
- Tenor or baritone players
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
10 lb empty
Heavy for a sax case. With the horn inside you are moving well over twenty pounds, so the wheels earn their keep.
Detail 03
Alto and straight soprano
The interior is shaped for a straight soprano alongside the alto. A curved soprano is a different shape and will not sit correctly.
Detail 04
16.5 x 30 x 9 in.
Thirty inches long and nine deep. Measure your car trunk and any overhead bin before you assume it fits.
Detail 05
PRO PAC hard shell
Rigid exterior over a fitted interior, so it resists crushing in a van or under other cases better than a soft gig bag.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm your soprano is straight, not curved, before ordering
- 02Wheels add depth — check trunk and overhead bin clearance at 30 inches
- 03No instrument, mouthpiece, stand, or accessories included
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will a curved soprano fit?
No. The interior is cut for a straight soprano. A curved horn has a different shape and will not seat properly or stay secure.
02Can I carry it on a plane?
At 30 inches long and 9 inches deep it exceeds many carry-on limits. Check your specific airline's dimensions before flying.
03How heavy is it?
About 10 pounds empty. Add your alto and it is a two-handed lift, which is why the wheels are there.
04Does it hold both horns at once?
Yes, the interior is laid out for an alto and a straight soprano together.
