I am looing for a case/gigbag combination that will work well with a 56J. The worry is the 4th valve wrap. At this point, Altieri looks like the best choice for a bag. However, the best choice for a case looks like a Walt J. Does anyone have a Walt J. case for a 56J, and how well did they accomodate the 4th valve wrap? I'm considering the option of getting one that will allow the horn to go into the case while still in the bag. Do any of you have that type of Walt J. case, and if so, how well does it work?

A little in the way of explanation...the case that the horn shipped with was damaged beyond repair in shipping. So I am looking at something a little more substantial. An Anvil would be a good choice, but I refuse to transport my horn in the open bed of my pick-up. Believe it or not, the horn in the case actually can ride up front with me IF it is a shaped case, and not an anvil-type. An anvil also won't fit into my wife's Saturn.

Thanks for any germaine opinions...

Steve
