Product Description

In the tradition of the Gator Lightweight technology, the new Gator band cases are the perfect cross between hard case protection and gig bag weight.

To insure your instrument does not get scratched, the interior is covered in soft plush.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great case, not so light, November 11, 2008

I bought this for my son to carry his saxophone to school. He is in sixth grade and walks about a mile and a half to school. His old hard case was cumbersome, heavy, and did not stay closed securely. The Gator case has numerous handles, which allows my son to hold it in different ways as he walks. It also has a shoulder strap. It is very well made and seems to be very tough. It is well padded and protects the instrument well. My only complaint is that it is not much lighter than the hard case. Still, the shoulder strap and various handles makes his commute much easier.

I've had a couple of these for the last few years and these are a great buy in a new lightweight case that still protects the instrument. They will fit right or left bell key saxophones and are a great choice for big belled horn (Keilwerth, Buescher 400.) I don't think anyone else makes a case, not a gig bag, this light and certainly not for this kind of money.

For what it's worth: 84.95 seems to be the going price both here and on eBay but the shipping is less here.

I feel I am always taking a chance when purchasing something online, but this saxophone case is fabulous! It fits the alto perfectly and the spacious outer pockets fit all the needed paraphenalia.
