Gard Bags have a reputation of providing quality protection at a reasonable price and the Mid-Bag Suspension series builds upon this reputation. In ordinary bags the baritone rests tightly against the bag s side. If dropped the protruding parts are likely to be dented. Using strategically placed blocks of padding the Mid-Bag Suspension series suspends your baritone horn away from the sides. Further stabilizing the instrument is a dense foam cone mounted on a hard disc on the inside of the case. This suspension system reduces the risk of dings or dents if the bag knocks into a wall or is dropped from a short distance. Like all Gard Bags the Mid-Bag Suspension series features a water resistant nylon or buffalo leather exterior rugged zippers soft interior flap to protect the instrument from the zipper backpack straps and shoulder strap. Fits baritones with up to a 9.5-inch bell.
