I have an Altieri gig bag apparently designed for a 6/4 American-style tuba with a 20" bell and about 41" tall. It's too large for my York Master, which is a large-belled but not an earth-mover, and there's about four or five inches of slack around the bottom bow. The size isn't the issue--it works well enough. But the top-loader just doesn't suit my taste, and I'd prefer a side-loader.
Therefore, I'm looking for a Reunion Blues gig bag that will fit a 4/4 horn (about 39" tall) with a 20" bell, and will pay cash or trade the Altieri bag (or both, depending on the condition).
If you hate that RB side-loader and want a bag you can comfortably wear like a backpack, this is your chance.
