I bought this to carry my bell-front marching baritone to and from rehearsal easily. With the backpack straps, I can take it with me on my bicycle or motorcycle. With the shoulder strap or handle straps, I can carry it while I'm using my actual book bag. Comes nicely lined and also comes with a velcro-close mouthpiece pouch. The pocket on the side is very large and will hold a music binder or lots of sheet music & books, as well as pencils. The zippers are very smooth and zip great. I will update when I've used it more.

I belong to several brass groups. I never had a case for my euphonium. I bought this one so I could put my euphonium in it and carry it on my back, freeing up my hands to carry my other instrument. Also, this bag has a music pocket.

I have found that my euphonium fits pretty well in this bag and it seems well protected. The music pocket is perfect for the three-ring binder we use for our music. I was surprised and happy to find a mouthpiece jacket in the music pocket! I have not used the shoulder sling yet, but it seems very well constructed.

So far, very happy with this purchase.

My holton bell front didn't come with a case, and trying to find one that would work for me was hard! I pretty much only use public transportation to get to practice and concerts, so having a case I could manage on trains and buses was a must. This gig bag has been perfect for that! Just throw it on my back and I'm ready! I have bumped a few people with it, but that's to be expected with a horn on my back and a crowded bus!

My ONLY complaint is that one of the zippers for the front pouch broke -- since there's another zipper there it's not a problem, but it was disappointing.

My horn fits snuggly and feels secure! It's been the perfect match for this urban euphist!
