doesnt actually offer all that much protection

"the Price Of This Instrument Reflects It"s Condition"

[SaxMoose]

175 shipping? Nty.

And looking at the interior pictures, I would NEVER put a bari in that lol.

[Al Carter]

A couple of 2x4 chunks of wood to keep the horn from sliding around? No, I don't think so.....

[Chris Peryagh]

Never in a million years would I ever consider putting my bari in that thing.

[Randall]

It's BAAAAAAACK!

This was on eBay well over a year ago. Generated quite a response in a thread then too, lol....

[DavidW]

I have seen it listed several times now. If you don't want this one, you can buy his re-lacquered 12m missing a neck for $2150 though.

[SaxPlayer1004]

the thread title was meant to be sarcastic sorry. I got a BAM a couple of years back after Randall swore by his and don't even look back at any other case. I have a WJ that I got for 50 bucks, and use that on occasion if I have to bring a Bb and a low A horn *some concert band settings we use two baris and one of the alto players uses one of my horns*. I just laughed hysterically when I saw it, and looking at the price laughed even harder.

THat thing is hideous, not to mention heavy, impractical, unsafe, expensive, worthless, pointless, dumb... The list does go on.

[Chris Peryagh]

Could be worse - it could've been made from solid gold.

The heaviest bari case I've encountered was a 5 Star aluminium flight case, unfortunately it housed an SA80II bari instead of something of real value.
